A LIFE OF SIR CHARLES WARREN. [To the Editor of
the SPEC'TATOR.] SIR,- -I have been asked to collect material with a view to a publication of a Life and Letters of my father-in-law, the late General Sir Charles Warren. May I appeal for assistance to any persons who possess letters or are in a position to contri-
bute reminiscences illustrative of his long public career, assistance which would be most gratefully acknowledged ?
All the documents, which would, it is to be hoped, illustnitc such services as Palestine exploration, the fortification of Gibraltar, the several South African expeditions, the punish- ment 'of the murderers of Professor Palmer, and the Com- missionerShip of the Metropolitan Police, would be treated with the utmost acre ; copies would be made and the originals would be duly returned to their owners.—I am, Sir, &c.,
WATKIH WILLIAMS..
