              Letter from Thomas George Montgomerie to Brian Houghton Hodgson. He writes that he hopes Hodgson has received his last Trans-Himalayan report. He then writes further of the report and of the explorers in Nepal and that he had to suppress much of the material collected in Nepal as the Nepal leaders do not like the English getting new information. 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. Montgomerie cannot understand such an immense piece of frontier being left in a lazy state. He writes also of the next stage of the Trigonometrical Survey. Handwritten, 2 pieces, 8 sides, dated 23 June 1873. Also accompanying envelope with Hodgson's annotations.
