“I send you a copy of the speech I made here at my
installation. I am setting out for Edinburgh this evening, and expect to be in
London on Saturday night.
“With a thousand thanks for your attention to my
son.”
Thomas Telford Campbell (1804-1845 fl.)
The elder son of the poet; he was confined to Matthew Allen's asylum in 1821 (John Clare
was a fellow inmate) and released following his father's death in 1844, a jury finding him
sane.
