From John Whitbread

Cardington Bedford

My dear Henslow

It is true that I have no vote myself, and it is as true that I have no [illeg.] with others - but as you are making out correct lists I think you may put down the names of my brother Francis Pym senior and Lord Tavistock as likely men to vote for Lord Palmerston for want of a better candidate - I mean as a man of their own way of thinking. Many thanks for recovering a vote for me - pray remind your friend of his promise when the time comes - If I am not mistaken I think that Lefevre is with you -

Yrs most truly

John Whitbread
