- Title:
- Copy of letter No.57 of 1865 from Pelly to Charles Gonne, Secretary to Government, Bombay
- Scope & Content:
-
Correspondence regarding accusations that Dr Colvill assumed Pelly's duties and pursued lines of policy without Pelly's permission to do so, and corresponded with government under these assumptions without producing proof of his right to do so.
The letter gives details of Pelly's previous experiences of permitting Dr Colvill to undertake Pelly's duties during periods of absence, highlighting the problems caused during these absences and his reasons for naming his uncovenanted assistant alongside Dr Colvill during his most recent absence in an attempt to mitigate potential problems.
A true copy of Pelly's letter to Colvill regarding his name having been put forward to act for him during his absence is also enclosed with the letter.
