Letter to Byrne, Frances Charles Horner, from Charles Lyell, 14 November 1867

Thanks for transferring The Edinburgh Review volumes, that appear to have been left to him by Aunt Nancy, and, for the 'french bonbons'. Talks of Rosamond and nephews dancing at Richmond, then comments on 'those articles of the Siecle' asking why 'a government which interferes so much with press and arrests so many on slight pretexts permits such bold expression of opinion'.
