Re Social Science Congress at Norwich, 1873.

Three letters from Arthur Joseph Street, 11 Apr. 1848-4 Jul 1884; letter from W. H. Benthall, 31 Jul. 1869; letter from Francis, Lord Napier, [5?] Nov. [1870s?].

Thirlestane, Selkirk, N[orth] B[ritain]. - His son Mark seeks the office of Remembrancer for the City of London, which Mr Robartes [sic: Charles Henry Robarts] is to vacate after quarrelling with the authorities. 'Mr Robartes was so ingenuous as to desire to reform some of the Corporation. I am confident that Mark would not have been so simple. Solicits Houghton's influence in 'the Land of the Turtle' and asks him to advise Mark. Postscript: will remain at his current address until the Land Bill comes before the Lords.
