He was one of the first to join the Philhellenic Committee of Marseille, which he strengthened in various ways with his work.<\/p>\n<p>One of the missions that the Committee assigned to him, led him in the Autumn of 1821, to move for the first time to Greece. Among others, he fought there in December in the Siege of Athens under the command of Demetrius Ypsilanti.<a href=\"#_ftn2\" name=\"_ftnref2\"><sup>[2]<\/sup><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>He then moved to England and joined the Philhellenic Committee of London.

The journey began with a tour of Europe, with stops in Darmstadt, Germany, Zurich, Bern and Geneva in Switzerland, and Genoa in Italy. There, the two men met representatives of the local Philhellenic committees. Stanhope was also a member of the Philhellenic Committee of London, and was assigned (along with Lord Byron and Lazaros Kountouriotis) commissioner to manage the money of the first loan to Greece.<\/p>\n<p>During his stay in Messolonghi, Bellier wrote a book titled &#8220;Einige Worte \u00fcber Griechenland&#8221;, which describes the daily life and living conditions of Greek and Philhellene fighters.<a href=\"#_ftn4\" name=\"_ftnref4\"><sup>[4]<\/sup><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In mid-1823 he returned briefly to England.
