Description

GORDON CHARLES GEORGE: (1833-1885) British Army officer and administrator, known as Chinese Gordon. A.L.S., C G Gordon, three pages, 8vo, Harpersfield, Lanark, 8th October 1868, to Newsome. Gordon informs his correspondent 'On receipt of your letter containing W[ar] O[ffice] query & supposing you would go to town on Monday I wrote my answer to you at that Temple of Wisdom and I am afraid you missed it', adding that 'it contained my official answer to Jervis open for your perusal with a private note to him & a ditto to you' and that he had followed it up with another private note to Jervis 'recommending the glacis of the forts to be made at same time as they were weighted'. Gordon further outlines his upcoming travel arrangements and suggests meeting Newsome at Suffolk Street, reflecting 'It seems to me 14 or 15 years since I left Gravesend, time hangs so in the country and for my life I dare not give away a trait' and concludes by remarking that he expects to receive a long letter containing the interview with Jervis before long, although if it is not yet written to not mind and wait until until Friday 'when we will get it over in a minute, and go to the W.O. together'.
