Add to basketSt. Helena, 24 March 1817. Lt.-General Sir Hudson Lowe (1769-1844), Governor of St. Helena (1815-1821). Admiral Sir Pulteney Malcolm (1768-1838) was Commander in Chief of the St.Helena station in 1816-17. Unlike Hudson Lowe, Malcolm remained on good terms with Napoleon, and made a valuable record of their conversations. Letters by Hudson Lowe as Governor of St.Helena are uncommon. Lowe's attachment to the detailed regulation of all life on St. Helena is well known. "In the distribution of the remaining spare Tonnage the first wants to be considered are those for the use of General Bonaparte's Establishment where the note of the Articles wanted has been signed by me or in my name, secondly those for my own use. Thirdly the Foreign Commissioners, Staff, and Regimental Messes.".
