TitleLetter from H. Rose, Dublin [Ireland], to the Duke of Manchester
DescriptionHe apologises for the delay in writing but these 'wretched Fenians' have taken up lots of his time. He saw the horse he mentioned for the Duchess but 'she had a mouth like a buffalo'. Lord Wodehouse has asked him to be in Dublin so he sees no prospect of hunting. He has several horses though and will let the Duke have one for £200 - he is a good jumper and quiet with troops. He knows of some other possible ones for the Duchess.
