Autograph letter from Earl Beauchamp to Henry Lawson dated 16th January, 1916.
The letter concerns Lawson’s dedication of My Army, O, My Army! and Other Songs (1915) to Beauchamp. Earl Beauchamp became the Governor of New South Wales in 1899 at the age of twenty-six. He helped Lawson move to England in 1900.

Aloysius Edward and I are leaving for several days, from May 6 until May 15. I will try to fill the queue for this period, but submissions are very welcome! :-)
I am also taking several books with me and hope to have a lot to share when I’m back.
