In den WarenkorbAUTOGRAPH LETTER SIGNED, one leaf folded to make four pages 155 x 100 mm, first leaf embossed with a small dragon in red in, dated January 27, 1883. A short (104 word) handwritten note: "My dear Lily, I am very sorry that I can give you no information as to where such a dog is to be got, but I should thinking I am the only man i…n the world that does not know. All my pets have been given me and all the people who have given them to me are dead. I am very sorry for your poor William - He loves him not who on the rack of this rude world would stretch him any longer - Give my kind regards to your sister and believe me, Very truly yours / Sherbrooke". Accompanied by an original photographic carte de visite, 100 x 65 mm, Elliott & Fry, slightly trimmed along bottom edge. The letter appears to have been taken from an album, and has the notation "(Robert Lowe) b: 1811 Lord Sherbrooke" in another hand at top of first page. Very good condition overall. Robert Lowe, 1st Viscount Sherbrooke, GCB, PC (4 December 1811 - 27 July 1892), British statesman, was a pivotal conservative spokesman who helped shape British politics in the latter half of the 19th century. He held office under William Ewart Gladstone as Chancellor of the Exchequer between 1868 and 1873 and as Home Secretary between 1873 and 1874. Lowe is remembered for his work in education policy, his opposition to electoral reform and his contribution to modern UK company law. In 1841 Lowe moved to London to read for the Bar, but his eyesight showed signs of serious weakness, and, acting on medical advice, he sailed to Sydney in the colony of New South Wales, where he set to work in the law courts. On 7 November 1843 he was nominated by Sir George Gipps, the Governor of New South Wales, to a seat in the New South Wales Legislative Council Lowe resigned from the council on 9 September 1844, but was elected in April 1845 for Counties of St Vincent and Auckland. Lowe held that seat until 20 June 1848 and was elected for City of Sydney in July 1848, a seat he held until November 1849. Lowe soon made his mark in the political world by his clever speeches, particularly on finance and education; and besides obtaining a large legal practice, he was involved with the founding and was one of the principal writers for the Atlas newspaper.He was know for agitating against transportation of English Prisoners to Australia. The Division of Lowe, a now abolished Australian electoral division located in Sydney, was named after him. (All this from Wikipedia).
