Letter

Paul Mary Pakenham - Family Background: Letter from Herbert Chitty, Secretary Winchester College, in reply to previous correspondence from Joseph (see particularly 2/2/1/4 and 2/2/1/3). Chitty has followed up previous enquiries regarding the question of C.R. P's ( Paul Mary's) having been a pupil at Winchester, particularly the possibility that Thomas Alexander Pakenham whose name appears on the Commoner's register might have been mistaken for Charles Reginald. Chitty satisfied that this could not have happened as Thomas Alexander's name appears on the MS address book of those attending the annual Wyckehamist (name given to those who had been pupils) dinner from 1860/1890. He also states that the "Italian 'life' of C.R.P., that Joseph had mentioned is in the "regions of romance" as neither Prince Edward of Saxe-Weimar nor the Earl of March was an alumnus of Winchester College. Copy of this "Italian Life!" is located at 2/2/7/29.
