Extract of a letter from Lieutenant Governor Smelt to Under Secretary of State Beckett responding to complaints and accusations made by the Duke of Atholl to Home Secretary Sidmouth. The letter addresses disputes over the Government House at Castle Rushen, including its repair, occupation, access, and the constitutional position of the Lieutenant Governor versus the Duke's residual claims. The correspondence illuminates post-Revestment tensions between Crown authority and the Duke's lingering interests on the Isle of Man.
