Letter book of private letters from Lewis Pelly to various persons.

Content

The letter book consists of correspondence primarily between Lewis Pelly, Agent to the Governor General in Rajputana [Rājasthān], and the individuals who reported to him including his assistants Henry Byam Abbott, Charles Allan Baylay and William Howell Beynon; the Political Agents for Jaipur, Mewar, Bhartpur, Naseerabad and Haraoti; Leslie Seymour Saunders the Commissioner at Ajmer; William Carnell, James Dawson Macdonald and John Dobrée Woolcombe the Commandants of the irregular forces in Rajputana; and Charles Umpherston Aitchison as Foreign Secretary to the Government of India.

The correspondence relates primarily to administrative affairs within Rajputana focusing on the settlement of boundary disputes and the ill-health and subsequent death of Shambhu Singh, Maharana of Mewar.

Other correspondents include William Wilson Hunter who was at the time travelling across India compiling his Imperial Gazetteer (published in 1881) and Mountstuart Elphinstone Grant-Duff, formerly under-secretary of state for India who was visiting the country.

There are also a number of letters between Pelly and the New Bank of Bombay regarding Pelly's finances, money transfers and accounts with various merchant companies.

Most of the correspondence in the volume has been entered on Lewis Pelly's behalf by other individuals, primarily Charlotte Beynon, wife of William Howell Beynon, assistant to Pelly, as he was suffering from eyesight problems that prevented him from writing and copying his own correspondence.
