Stoddard, Sir John

Copy of a letter addressed to Mr. Langslow

London: T. Brettell, 1847. 12mo, pp. 14; disbound, title page nearly detached, top right-hand corner a bit dog eared, else a good copy. Letter written by an editor of the Times and former Chief Justice of Malta to Robert Langslow, a former Judge in Ceylon, who had been (arguably unfairly) dismissed from his post by Lord Stanley, Secretary of State for the British Colonies. In this brief letter, Stoddard voices his support and sympathy for Langslow. Online only in OCLC. Item #40809
