Colonel Fawcett and Mr Munro letter to the editor
A. J. Munro writes to refute Mrs Fawcett’s account of a quarrel with Lieut. Col. Fawcett. He recounts visiting the officer on June 29, denies threats, asserts he acted under advisers, cites instructions to Mr. Cuddy, and says he was insulted and could not obtain an apology. He fears the affair could ruin him, notes he is married with five children, and states he is not a practiced pistol shot.

TO SIR ROBERT PEEL ON HIS MARVELLOUS QUACK-SALVING IN CURRENCY
A sharp critique of Sir Robert Peel’s currency plan as presented in a Times article. The writer ridicules the proposed Bank of England notes policy, mocks the three hour parliamentary lecture, and argues the scheme absurdly limits national finance. The piece attacks the notion of a single national bank and questions practicalities of issuing and policing notes across branches.
