Postcard written by Gladstone in reply to a note enclosing a paragraph from the Jewish Chronicle in which Gladstone was described as being disposed toward Russia. Gladstone replies, “It is a gross case of calumny.”
Gladstone (1809-1898), four-time Prime Minister of Great Britain, is remembered as the “grand old man of 19th-century British politics.”
