CHILDERS
(Hugh Culling Eardley, 1827-1896, Cabinet Minister)
Autograph Letter Signed to Sir George Otto Trevelyan, 1838-1929, O.M.,
then Parliamentary Secretary to the Admiralty, asking for information "for use in moving the Army Estimates ... When we improved the Naval Retirement in 1870 it was said that the increase of charge would continue, in spite of the reduction of numbers. I estimated a large decrease in 25 years time & some in 10 years", so if Childers can have a breakdown for 1869 or 1870 and compare it with 1881 or 1882, "it will be of great use shewing the probable effect of the similar changes in the Army, though our reduction in numbers is not so great", War Office, 4 sides 8vo., 9th March
original pencil markings by Trevelyan, pin holes in blank margins
