On 5 July 1810, the first year of office of his uncle, Lord Grenville, as chancellor of the university, he was created D.C.L. His rooms as an undergraduate were in `Skeleton Corner,' where Southey, who had made his friendship at Westminster in 1788 and kept it through life, used often to visit him.
Wynn, though not a rich man, made Southey an allowance of 160l.
In 1801 Wynn hoped to obtain for his friend the post of secretary to some Italian legation, but was disappointed.

 George Canning - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Stratford Canning was a Whig, and he introduced his nephew in the 1780s to Whigs such as Charles James Fox, Edmund Burke, and Richard Brinsley Sheridan (George Canning's friendship with Sheridan would last for the remainder of Sheridan's life).
George Canning's impoverished background and limited financial resources, however, made unlikely a bright political future with the Whigs, who were led by those members of the wealthy landed aristocracy in opposition to the Crown.

Charles Watkin Williams Wynn was the second son of Sir Watkins William Wynn, 4th baronet of Wynnstay, Denbighshire, who died in July 1789.
Wynn, though not a rich man, made Southey an allowance of £160 per annum, beginning with the last quarter of 1796 and ending in 1807, when, through the same friendly influence, a net pension of £144 a year was bestowed on him by the government.

 The Sailcloth Shroud by Charles Williams reviewed by Ed Lynskey
Ironically enough, it was released in 1975, the year of Williams' death, an alleged drowning suicide in the Pacific Northwest.
Williams (and other hardboiled novelists from his era) propel a straightforward plot with suspense points built in without seams.
Williams logged in ten years as a merchant marine radio officer, what must've served as a life experience from which to write a book like The Sailcloth Shroud.

 Robert Southey
At the end of 1797 his friend Wynn began an allowance of £160 a year, which was continued until 1806, when Southey relinquished it on Wynn's marriage.
With William Gifford, his editor, he was never on very good terms, and would have nothing to do with his harsh criticisms on living authors.
Southey was not in the highest sense of the word a poet; but if we turn from his verse to his prose we are in a different world; there Southey is a master in his art, who works at ease with grace and skill.
