DescriptionCopy letter from Henry A. Hunt to Edgar Bowring regarding the Barrack question and Gladstone's proposal that it be placed on land at Kensington. He mentions that Bowring's argument against the appropriation of the land is 'unanswerable' and states that he believes that if the Barracks were established on the land there would be a public outcry. He also suggests that if the Barracks are placed on the land at Kensington that the Commissioners' consider buying land from Lord Kensington and Mr Broadwood and hopes that they will succeed in 'driving Mr Gladstone to some other quarter'.
