Scope and content

Letter from Archibald Campbell to Brian Houghton Hodgson in which he addresses Hodgson's concerns that the "Venice fever was cropping up again". He suggests that, if it continues to the Spring, Hodgson must give his wife a change. Campbell writes that everyone is reading "Lawrence's Life" and that Campbell takes every opportunity to discredit the Nepal portion. He writes about "Geo Campbell visited Willies station t'other day... My first acquaintance was a pleasant surprise...not however a likeable man". Campbell then suggests that "no doubt my name and other manners are uncommon bad!" but suggests Lawrence is alienating the B.C.S. Handwritten, 1 piece, 4 sides, with accompanying envelope annotated by Hodgson, dated 23 December, 1872.
