Letter from William Russell to Charles Ruland regarding the latter's attempts to track down the photographer Monsieur Grillet in Naples.

Russell regrets to report that his son has left Naples for Rome; he would otherwise have been willing to look for the photographer [Grillet]. Russell suggests getting the help of the English Consul in Naples, Mr Bonham. Russell's son could be the intermediary; being a keen amateur photographer he may even know the photographer in question. He was not well when he left for Rome, but Dr Pantaleone, a very able doctor in Rome, is optimistic about his recovery.
