Lord Martin Bladen Hawke, Yorkshire & England 1881-1911. A two page handwritten folding letter in ink from Lord Hawke, who was Captain of Yorkshire for many years, to ‘My dear Talbot’, dated 14th March 1900. Writing from his home at Wighill Park, Tadcaster, the letter appears to relate to some gossip about ‘the Club [Yorkshire?]’ asking ‘Do tell me... the whys and the wherefores re [the] enclosed’. Nicely signed ‘Hawke’. Light fold and minor foxing, otherwise in good/ very good condition.
