In den Warenkorb1p, 4to. In fair condition, aged and worn, with creasing and heavy wear at head. Folded three times. Addressed to 'The Rev. C. R. Sumner'. Reads: 'Rev. Sir | As Librarian of the British & Foreign Bible Society, I have the honor to state to you that a Resolution has been passed by the Committee of that Society, requesting permiss…ion to offer to His Majesty as a mark of their dutiful homage a set of Copies of the Versions of Holy Scripture executed or reprinted at their expence. Such a set is hencewith sent to Carlton Palace, addressed to you, and I am directed to request that you will be pleased to lay it before His Majesty.' In 1820 George IV had wished to appoint Sumner a canon of Windsor, but the Prime Minister the Earl of Liverpool objected, and so Sumner received a Royal Chaplaincy and the position of Librarian to the King at his London palace, Carlton House. A related letter from Platt to Sumner is offered separately.
