Author: 
Field Marshal George Charles Bingham (1800-1888), 3rd Earl of Lucan, remembered for his involvement during the Crimean War in the Charge of the Light Brigade
Publication details: 
<Sutton?> 22 January 1840.
£80.00

2pp., 32mo. Bifolium. Lightly-aged and creased. Giving a good indication of Lucan's famous short-temper, the letter starts peremptorily: I paid your account for 2 nights furnished in 1837 on the 9th. of Augst. last & I hold you accept your sending me the account again must be a mistake'. Postscript: 'I return you the account you have sent -'.
