Scope and Content

Manuscript copy of extract of letter. M. Humbert expressed his sense of the continuing urgency of the situation in the world at large. He ends: 'This danger still exists so long as there remains a single market for slaves under the regulation system'.

Date: This was probably written at the same time as the letter from M. Humbert to JB dated 7 Nov 1886 when she was staying in Switzerland nursing her husband through an illness which nearly proved fatal.
