Description

Folio(s) 184-185. Letter from F A Palmer of Uppingham [Rutland] referring to the Home Secretary’s reply to the Earl of Winchilsea [Lord Lieutenant of Rutland] who had transmitted a plea from graziers in the area for action against the nocturnal killing and stealing of their sheep and lambs.
