Autograph letter signed, one page. 17.9 x 11.2 cm. A brief political note from the 8th Duke of Argyll, statesman, author and former Secretary of State for India. Writing from Inveraray, Argyll declines to speculate upon a matter raised by his correspondent, observing that there are already sufficiently important questions requiring public attention. A characteristic late letter from one of the leading Liberal Unionist figures of the Victorian period, written during the politically charged years preceding the General Election of 1892 and the renewed debates over Irish Home Rule. Folded as sent with light handling wear and minor staining. Very good condition overall.
