ALS, one page, 5 x 7, Dark Continent letterhead, January 23, 1886. Letter to Douglas Murray. In full: “I shall be extremely happy to meet the Count de Lesseps at dinner at your house on the 27 th inst at 7.30. Accept my best thanks.” In very good condition, with light toning to page from previous display, a bit heavier at edges, a central horizontal fold, and some scattered light creases. Interesting association between two men who profoundly impacted Africa. RRAuction COA.
