Dear Henslow

I thank you for your letter and your information respecting the Election. I have settled with Charles to accompany him down to Cambridge and therefore you may depend upon me; but for particular reasons I have decided and wish to give my 2d vote to Copley & I cannot therefore give Ld. P a plumper. This my chief object of writing as I thought you would wish to know what I meant to do.

I expect a tremendous collection of voters. People indeed seem to look forward to the Election with extraordinary interest. Minny sends her love & thanks to Harriet for her letter - Our Nursery is quite well - hope yours the same -

Believe me

Yours sincerely in haste

G. Jenyns
