Fifteen items of correspondence, including eleven autograph letters from Stonor himself, eight signed 'Edmund Stonor', the other three '+ Edmund Stonor | Abp of Trebizond'. The collection aged and worn, with fraying to edges. The items attached with a brass stud. Regarding the two recipients, prominent solicitors serving the Irish and Roman Catholic interests in London, Philip Witham (1843-1921) - whose firm was Roskell, Witham, Munster and Weld - appears to have succeed F. R. Ward at 1 Gray's Inn Square. The main topic of the correspondence is the drafting in 1888 of Stonor's will. Other topics include: an allowance to a family member, and a request for information about a London solicitor visiting Rome. The other four items in the collection are: ALS to Stonor from Ward; carbon copy of ALS to Stonor from Witham; two ALsS to Witham from the judge Henry James Stonor (1820-1908; Who Was Who), in one of which (21 June 1896) he discusses the Bishop's role as 'a kind of "Chargé d'affaires" for all the English Catholics Lays & secular & then friends', for whom he 'does all he can', considering that 'he ought to be assisted'.
