Letter from Thomas George Montgomerie to Brian Houghton Hodgson. He writes that he hopes Hodgson has received his last Trans-Himalayan report.

He writes that the Residents of Nepal are generally too timid in gleaning information but that he has been working quietly with his native explorers. Montgomerie further writes that he has been speaking with Sir Louis Mallet who had been sounding out Mr Gridlestone but there looked like there was little chance of assistance for the Nepal Durbar.
