A.L.S., B Disraeli, three pages, 8vo, Hughenden Manor, 31st August 1864, to the Earl of Clanwilliam ('My dear Lord'). Disraeli writes 'You said you shd. certainly be hanging about town, or the south, for some little time' and enquires 'Shall you be in our parts during the impending month? And, if so, may we count on the great pleasure of seeing you….to stay a few days, & taste the air of the Chiltern Hills?' In a postscript Disraeli adds that the nearest station is High Wycombe ('only about two miles from our gates'). The final leaf of the letter is neatly laid down to a portion of a page removed from an album, otherwise VGRichard Meade (1795-1879) 3rd Earl of Clanwilliam. British Diplomat & Politician who served as Lord Castlereagh's Private Secretary from 1817-19.Disraeli, the only British Prime Minister of Jewish birth, served two terms in office and played a central role in the creation of the modern Conservative Party.
