Not sent, according to note on verso of draft. On verso of copy a note from Sir Charles Trevelyan, dated 28 Jun. 1875, states that he 'quite approve[s] of the letter overleaf'.

Letter appears to be incomplete; Ellis expresses surprise that Napier has taken a week to reply in a matter which he believed to be urgent.
