Description
Inventory description: Three letters found together in an envelope marked ‘The Townsend Heirlooms’: one by J Harrington (b 1871?), veteran of the Queen’s Own Royal West Kent Regiment, concerning the renewal of a peddler’s license; the second by Capt William Cosby of the 3rd Regiment of Foot (the Buffs) concerning a military pension; the third by a man called Chesterfield, no military connection/rank, concerning the loan of a pen and a billet-doux; the letters are seemingly unrelated.
