  <dc:description>MS 1160/20/299/1: Letter from W. Parry, London to Thomas Gordon, [Cairness]. Note accompanying letter MS 1160/20/299/2. [15 October 1824]

MS 1160/20/299/2: Report [copy; enclosed in MS 1160/20/317] by W. Parry. Includes report to Byron [Mesolonghi, 11 April] on Parry's activities from 7 February to 12 April, with detailed account of military preparations, expenses and various problems and incidents. Adds later remarks and a 'supplement' recording Byron's death [19 April] and its aftermath, as it affected Byron's Brigade. Compares unfavourably Stanhope's interfering policies with Byron's principles and assesses the desperate financial situation in Western Greece. [30 June 1824]</dc:description>
