AFGHANISTAN, RUSSIA AND PERSIA
A.
ORIGINAL MATERIALS
MANUSCRIPT
The chief authorities are the Political Proceedings of the Government of
India, at the India Office and the Imperial Record Office, and the Foreign Office
series Russia and Persia, at the Public Record Office. Of these the Government
of India papers are not, while the Foreign Office papers are, generally, accessi-
ble to the student. Besides these there are three private collections of great
importance:
(1) The Ellenborough Papers at the Record Office. This vast mass of
documents has now been arranged as follows: Files 1-36 miscellaneous loose
letters and papers; files 37-69, letters to Lord Ellenborough from April, 1841,
to July, 1844, from various men of note such as the Prince Consort, the Duke
of Wellington, Sir Robert Peel, and the various higher officials in India, e. g.
Sir C. Napier, Major-General Pollock, Major-General Nott, the Commander-
in-Chief, and Major Sleeman; files 70-73, miscellaneous papers, civil, European,
military, political; files 74-106, letters from Lord Ellenborough to various
important Indian officials and to the Secret Committee and Court of Directors:
tiles 107-110, miscellaneous letters, civil, European, military and political.
Some of these letters have been printed, others have not.
(2) The Broughton Papers at the British Museum. This collection of the
correspondence and papers of John Cam Hobhouse, first Baron Broughton,
fills 29 volumes, and was bequeathed to the British Museum at his death in
1869 with the condition that it was to be sealed up till the year 1900. It forms
Add. MSS 36455-83. The important volumes are 36467-72, his general cor-
respondence relating to the time when he was at the Board of Control;
36473-4, April, 1835-May, 1841, correspondence with Lord Heyte bury and then
mainly with Lord Auckland. There are enclosures relating to Central Asia,
Afghanistan.
(3) The Auckland Papers at the British Museum.
This collection of thirty
volumes of letters, books, and minute books forms Add. MSS 37689-718. Of
these numbers 37689-707 consist of confidential letters to various eminent men;
they run from 13 March, 1836 to 16 February, 1842. At folio 174 in 37707 is a
letter (a little out of its right date) from Lord Auckland to Lord Ellenborough
giving an account of recent events in Afghanistan. 37708 contains copies of a
few letters from Lord Auckland to Sir Charles Metcalfe and others running
from 24 September, 1836, to 3 April, 1837. 37709-13. Five volumes of minutes
and memoranda by Lord Auckland, from 11 April, 1836, to 30 December, 1840.
