Letter from George Thompson, London, [England], to Richard David Webb, 1847 Nov[ember] 12
Description:
George Thompson writes to Richard Davis Webb in regards to giving his opinion on the Dissenters Chapel Bill. Estlin wrote him on the subject and Thompson replied which "has found its way into the Enquirer" and he has written his response in his letter to Webb. He asks if Webb has heard his speech to his constituents on the Indian Question? He also sends a newspaper of his response. He suspects a victory over the Raja's question before it reaches the House of Commons. He mentions that Mr. F.G. Brown will be in Dublin and will request an interview with Allen & Haughton.
