Description
Francis Rawdon Chesney signed partial letter. The letter has been clipped in half. Chesney mentions "the Sultan". The Sultan of Arabia was a crucial ally in Chesney's Euphrates Expedition, which resulted in the creation of the Suez Canal, so this letter may have been sent while Chesney was on the expedition.The paragraph reads: "I have received the final telegram that our ? have been signed by the Sultan therefore there is plenty of work before me."
4" x 4", Very Good condition.
