Scope and content

Edinburgh. - Enclose their account [no longer present], which includes costs due by Sir Charles Trevelyan to Messrs Edmonston & Douglas and paid by Gibson & Co. They understood the correspondence of July-September 1875 to constitute an arrangement by which Sir Charles and George Trevelyan would stay proceedings, and Napier was not to publish any of the letters in question until the 'Life' of Lord Macaulay was published, and on this understanding they did not take steps to have the interdict declared perpetual. Therefore an order for costs against Messrs Constable would not be granted.
