Description
Holograph, signed.Title devised by cataloger.George Thompson writes to Richard Davis Webb in regards to settling into his new residence near the Thames. He has been given permission to proceed with his charges against Colonel Ovans and the Bombay Authorities for the dethronment of the Raja. He has called a special court for a list of men to speak for this purpose. He has a good contribution for the next fair. He writes of sending "of a good collution of these pamphlets, which Wendell Phillips said would see regret, with you, the coming of Remond." He asks if James Buffum can make speeches and if Henry needs to keep them in Ireland. He wants to get Henry Clarke Wright's last book on Grafenburg. If he can get away from London after the debutes at the India House, he will go to Scotland and Belfast. If he goes to the latter, he will see Webb in Dublin.
