From Lord Palmerston 28 February 1826

Stanhope St.

28 Feby.1826

My dear Sir

I send you a report which shows we are still creeping on - Bankes was asked yesterday by Sir Sandford Graham whether he meant to go to the Poll, & he said that nothing but Death should prevent him from doing so; If I do not said he you may set me down as a Liar. This I think good news.

My dear Sir

Yrs sincerely

Palmerston

I have just been presenting the University Petition about Colonial Slavery & have expressed my full & entire concurrence with its sentiments
