- Scope and Content:
- Marked private. Horsely appears to write about the selection of pictures for the 1855 Paris Exhibition although the exhibition is not named by Horsley. He addresses a note he received from a Mr. Ellison: there seems to be an issue with obtaining works by David Cox from his son. Horsely would like Redgrave to "command the attendance of Cox the younger." Horsely is annoyed that he has been "'burning daylight'" with a vengeance writing letters. An inserted paper lists works that Horsley claims are Ellison's suggestions for "alternatives."
