Incoming Correspondence and Papers, 1860—1863, 1865—1869

London Office. Letters to Henry Wollaston Blake and the London office from 1860 to 1869. The letters are addressed to 18 London Street unless otherwise noted. Very few letters from these years survive. Those that do appear to have been “cherry-picked” from their original bundles because of their subject matter, for example the experiences of men sent to Peru, the Great Eastern, or Lord Mount Edgcumbe’s steam yacht. There are also various receipts, memoranda and accounts.
