1916réf. 003868original letters. KITCHENER Lord Herbert 1st Earl Kitchener GREY Eric Verner Lieutenant Royal Navy. A small group of related correspondence photographs and official telegram relating to Lieutenant Grey's service and death in the loss of H.M.S. Hampshire. H.M.S Newcastle and H.M.S Hampshire 5th August 1914 - 3 June 1916. A group of 5 autograph letters signed various dates from 1 August 1914 to 3 June 1916 written in ink on naval stationery most with crowned "HMS Hampshire" device together with an official Post Office telegram announcing the loss of the vessel and two portrait photographs of Grey in uniform by J Russell and Sons; the whole housed loose the telegram glazed and framed; usual folds light handling wear overall well preserved a very good grouping. The loss of H.M.S. Hampshire on 5 June 1916 was one of the most widely reported maritime disasters of the First World War in which Herbert Kitchener was among those killed. The group centres on Lieutenant E. V. Grey Royal Navy and comprises letters written to his sister "Cis" during his service including material from the outbreak of war through to the immediate aftermath of the Battle of Jutland. The final letter dated 3 June 1916 is of particular significance. Written immediately following the Battle of Jutland 31 May-1 June 1916 it records a brief but direct contemporary reaction: "we came out of it jolly well. the ancient cruisers were rather strafed as you will see in the papers" before closing with the remark that he is "absolutely dog tired". This letter was written just two days after the battle and two days before his death. The official Admiralty telegram sent to his sister reported that H.M.S. Hampshire had been sunk with all on board. The vessel was lost off Orkney on 5 June 1916 shortly after departing on a mission carrying Lord Kitchener to Russia. There is a note written recently from a family member of Lieutenant Grey and his sister. It reads "letters from Great Granny's brother to her from HMS Hampshire he served with Lord Kitchener on it and enclosed is the telegram to say all had been sunk including Lord Kitchener and Granny's brother." A rare grouping relating Lieutenant Grey who was at the Battle of Jutland and sadly the subsequent sinking of H.M.S. Hampshire with the uncommon official telegram confirming his loss. . Very Good.

Oblong 8vo. Leather and cloth over boards upper cover stamped in gilt. Upper corners perished. Internally clean and fresh. 10 ink and watercolor drawings of elevations and plans of fortifications signed in a lettering hand; with 9 lithographs of classical fortifications &c. some signed or initialled by Kitchener with additions. 1 vols. Oblong 8vo. Highly competent album of drawings of fortifications mines and elevations by the young Kitchener while a student at the Royal Military Academy Woolwich. Kitchener 1850-1916 born in Ireland to English parents and raised in Switzerland spent "an undistinguished two years" at the Royal Military Academy. When he progressed to the School of Military Engineering Chatham he began to distinguish himself. He worked with the Palestine Exploration Fund and on the survey of Cyprus and gained a reputation as a man who knew the Near East. "In 1884 he acted as an intelligence officer for the relief expedition sent to the Sudan to rescue Charles George Gordon; he continually pressed Wolseley the commander of the expedition to push forward more rapidly. Despite the expedition's failure to save Gordon Kitchener emerged with credit and some fame." He was named sirdar or commander of the Egyptian army in 1892 and instituted needed reforms. Under his leadership Anglo-Egyptian forces defeated the Mahdist armies in the Sudan in 1898 avenging Gordon's death and reconquering the country. Kitchener's administrative talents came to the fore in the South African War where superior transportation and the policy of destroying farms and interning Boer civilians in concentration camps prevailed against the guerrilla tactics of the Boer forces. In his role as secretary of state for war in 1914 his advocacy of preparations for a long and global conflict defined British policy. A choice item from early in the career of this larger than life and still controversial figure. unknown

1896réf. 004020original letter. KITCHENER Lord Herbert 1850-1916. Autograph letter signed to William Staveley Gordon concerning the Dongola Expedition and the Nile gunboats. Dongola 24 September 1896. Single sheet folded to form four pages written on all four sides and signed. Old horizontal and vertical mailing folds otherwise very good with bold dark ink throughout. Written from Dongola immediately following the successful conclusion of the Dongola Expedition this important campaign letter sees Kitchener personally credit William Staveley Gordon with the success of one of the defining British military operations in the Sudan. Addressing Gordon a Royal Engineers officer and nephew of General Charles Gordon of Khartoum Kitchener writes: "A great measure of the success of this expedition has been due to you and I wish to let you know how highly I appreciate the work you have done." The letter was written on 24 September 1896 one day after the occupation of Dongola and only days after the Battle of Hafir where Anglo-Egyptian gunboats forced the Mahdist river defences and secured the final advance south. Kitchener discusses the performance of the newly constructed gunboat Zafir noting that she reached the force "only 2 hours before the final advance" before providing a detailed assessment of her capabilities. Although critical of her speed against the current coal consumption and draught he concludes that "the design and arrangement of the steamer is very nearly perfect" and that had she arrived on schedule "she would be a splendid boat." He leaves Gordon to deal with the remaining practical difficulties before adding the telling observation that "The troops are pretty ragged & boots worn out as you may imagine." Kitchener's acknowledgement that "a great measure of the success of this expedition" was due to Gordon represents an exceptionally generous private tribute and demonstrates the importance of Gordon's work in enabling the advance upon Dongola. William Staveley Gordon 1859-1934 served with the Royal Engineers in Egypt and the Sudan and became one of Kitchener's principal officers responsible for the Nile flotilla. As the nephew of General Charles Gordon killed at Khartoum in 1885 his role in the reconquest carried an additional symbolic significance the campaign being widely viewed in Britain as the recovery of the Sudan following the Mahdist victories of the previous decade. .
