Correspondence and accounts relating to Cameron's property in Cacutta - 43 and 44 Park Street, and 40 Free School Lane. Most of the letters are addressed to Lt Col John Hogge, one of the executors of the estate, and are chiefly from Colvin, Ainslie, Cowie & Co., the executors' agents in Calcutta. Other correspondents include Fred Dowding, Bath solicitor, and Herries, Farquharr & Co of London. The correspondence is principally concerned with the transmission of rents from the houses, their condition, and maintenance. After his mother's death (21 Jan 1846) the Park Street property passed to Lt Col W.G. Cameron, who made enquiries into the sums expended by Colvin & Co., on repairs.
From correspondence and papers of Lieutenant-General William Cameron (1754-1837), Bengal Engineers, relating particularly to investments and property in India.
