Manuscript letter from H M Stanley to Burroughs
Title
Manuscript letter from H M Stanley to Burroughs
Description

Letter from H M Stanley to Burroughs. "You are simply too generous. I will bear your kind promise in mind though I don't think I shall call on you often - as I do not meet with many gentlemen on their way to Africa." Stanley then refers to a forthcoming political meeting in Lambeth at which he and Mrs Stanley will speak. "Concerning the 'Democratic' waggon. I think you had better hurry up with it for the Election may be on us at any day." Verso, Burroughs writes to Sudlow and Kirby about his desire "to be of service to Mr Stanley," whose "services to the country will be of utmost value." In particular, the free provision of a "waggon" and the procurement of a team of horses - "perhaps Mr Hertz would lend his team & drive it or Stanley's agent would find a good driver who knows the locality...." (See the letter, below, 9 March, from T Hertz to Burroughs.)
