| Evidence: | Lord Mahon to John Murray, 11 December 1836:
'I am much obliged to you for the early copy of the [Quarterly] Review which I am reading
with great pleasure. The article on myself was very gratifying to me. Its approbation of the
work is joined to so much knowledge of the subject as to make the former truly valuable.
Pray, when you see Mr. Lockhart, tell him how highly I appreciate it.
'Lord Wellesley's letter is quite beautiful -- no less noble in sentiment than nervous in
language [...]
'The third article on Napier makes me think the following no bad plan [goes on to suggest
collection of all Quarterly Review article on this subject in a 'a pocket volume, for the use of
the army']'. |
