In view of this he has sent a Paper to be read at the meeting. The Society (of Arts) proposes to follow up the meeting with a Deputation to the India Office and have named Hyde Clarke (1815 – 1895) and Campbell to follow up as regards Nepal and Tibet. They had urged Campbell to encourage Hodgson to join the Deputation but Campbell had pointed out that Hodgson would not come to any meeting. He asks whether Hodgson would send a memo to help.
