From Lord Palmerston   6 June 1826

My dear Sir,

I sent you yesterdays return; I was unfortunately too busy to write. I think it would be well to tell Mr Thompson that my Committee provide conveyances for my friends & will be happy to be charged by him with the task of making arrangements for his journey.

I always thought there was a possibility of good from keeping up a fire of letters upon an enemy & Mr Furey's retreat is a satisfactory proof of it.

My dear Sir

Yrs sincerely

Palmerston

I am writing this on Monday evening, & shall write again tomorrow (Tuesday) with the report of the day
