From Lord Palmerston   2 May 1826

Stanhope St.

2 May 1826

My dear Sir

I send you my book corrected up to the latest returns, & shall be glad to have it back again as soon as you can return it to me. I still think the Election will be in the first or second week in June.

I mean to send out a second letter to all those whose intentions have not been decidedly ascertained as to both their votes, & when it is lithographed I will send you some copies to Cambridge in case any of the Committee should be able to use them as they did the former letter.

Goulburn thinks himself stronger than Bankes and both will certainly go to the Poll.

My dear Sir

Yrs faithfully

Palmerston

If you have any additions to make to this list either as to promises or adverse votes I wish you would send them to me on a separate piece of paper that I may ascertain them at once without a comparison of the whole list
