From Lord Palmerston 17 January 1826

My dear Sir

I send you the produce of today which added to your list makes a very good days work: our Committee are hard at work & the attendance is good, we had Birch & Robt Benson of Trny, & Raymond of Trny. with us. I send you a Paper brought to me today by Birch showing what he has been doing. Ld Camden has been indefatigable & so has Ld Bristol.

My dear Sir

yrs sincerely

Palmerston

I will send you the returned letters tomorrow. I wish in order to save you trouble to compare them first with the corrected lists as I sent off my letters first by the old lists, & then when I received the corrected ones sent off duplicate letters to those who had changed their residence & the first lts were generally returned to me but need not be sent down to you.
