Part of Papers of Richard Monckton Milnes, Lord Houghton

Bristol. - Did not reply to Milnes' letter from Paris as passage of Bill rendered an interview with Palmerston unnecessary; certificate for Kingswood; girls' reformatories needed; Lady Noel Byron has bought an Elizabethan house [Red Lodge] for the purpose; hopes proposed school will be self-supporting but in the meantime would be glad of funds.
