Autograph letter signed from B. Jowett, Oxford, to Algernon Charles Swinburne [manuscript], after 1850 February 26.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/462079151

Jowett indicates that he has not heard from Swinburne in a very long time. Makes references to the political situation in Europe and says it is "inconceivable that any Liberal can be a friend of Russia, the oppressor of Poland, the terror of Germany in 1850, and the most corrupt government in Europe."
