Arthur Edward Valette Ponsonby (1827-1868) was the son of Major General Sir Frederick Cavendish Ponsonby (1783-1837), former Governor of Malta, and brother of Sir Henry Ponsonby (1825-1895), who became Queen Victoria's Private Secretary. He was commissioned into the Grenadier Guards, served in the Kaffir war and the Crimea, and was quartered in Corfu when Gladstone arrived on a special mission to investigate the unsatisfactory state of the Ionian Islands in 1858. He also started the garrison newspaper (mentioned in his letter here) and was aide-de-camp to General Sir George Buller, the Garrison Commander. In April 1863 he transferred to the Suffolk Regiment when '...One of his first innovations was a battalion journal, the East Suffolk Gazette, believed to be the first such publication in the Army...' (Suffolk Regiment Museum website) and organised the first Soldier's Industrial Exhibition in Dublin in 1864. He took the battalion to India where he introduced a range of activities to keep the soldiers active, no doubt inspired by his early days in Corfu. He died of cholera at Jubbulpore in June 1868. According to his great nephew, also Arthur, he was '...a very amusing, original and unconventional man... quite colourless in his letters, although he touched on questions of interest...'
