DescriptionLetter written from Southbourne, Augustus Road, Birmingham dated 26 October. Chamberlain writes that [? Bridert] has slandered him and discusses potential courses of action to take against him. Chamberlain argues: 'If I was a shareholder, the libel would be the same; as he imputed a corrupt use of my position to serve my personal and pecuniary interest'. He asks Martineau to advise on legal grounds.
