From A. Carrighan 14 February 1826

My dear Henslow

I have to thank you again for a pretty good list. The noble Lord not being yet arrived I am of course unacquainted with the accessions of the two last days.

Birch of our College was here as I am told, yesterday to say that Lane (Charlton) of Jesus has written to a friend of his stating that no acknowledgment of his vote to Lord Palmerston he had determined to withdraw it and give it to Goulburn. If you can recollect (for I cannot) through whom his promise was given, it may not be too late to set this matter right.

On my arrival in London I found at the K.K.Club a letter from Fiolt asking me to do a thousand things for him, and dated as far back as the 2nd.instant. I hope he discovered my absence from Cambridge [illeg., page ripped] enough to apply elsewhere. Of course I should gladly have done all he required.

My present intention is to be at Cambridge next Monday or Tuesday but I cannot positively say that it will be so.

Funds, I hear worse and worse this morning - down to 74.

Kind rememberances to all.

Ever yrs truly

Carrighan, A.
