115, Park Street, W. April 8 (18)64. Marked "Private". "My dear Sir James Clark, In reply to your queries:- 1. I do not think Gibson? Will be of any use now- because (altho' he entirely concurs, as he must,) you seven can depend upon what he will say- upon whether he will stand by you. But, should it come, e.g. to a committee consisting of yourselves, being asked to draw up the precise meanings of clause 17..."; "2. Capt. Galton does not say- (or at least, if he does, he has no right to say) that Sidney Herbert "gave up the right to (?) at the mess"... and goes on at the end: "The W.O. has never answered my challenge- and altho' it is (unfortunately) true that S. Herbert did "consent" to one change, all the rest is untrue- And as for the "confidential circulars." he knew nothing of them. Ever your most truly, SIGNED, F. Nightingale.
