'My dear Prothero, I hope you will not mind my saying as an old friend and contributor to the Quarterly how much I regret seeing in the July issue the article "India under Lord Hardinge." It is, I think, an extremely unfair attack upon him, but, as I am personally very much attached to him, I may not be impartial on that point.'

Additional Comments:
This letter is in a folder in the John Murray Archive, of correspondents with Prothero with surnames BAI to CRO. All letters are loose. The NLS was, at the time of writing, in the process of recataloguing the John Murray Archive. All MS call numbers should therefore be checked at source.
