Add to basketDated South Onslow Gardens, April 18, no year but 1866. One sheet folded, three pages used. "I want very much to have five or six pages on the Reform debate and the division - whatever that is.in the May number of Frasers. It should be written by some one who has heard the speeches and taken part in the passions of this situation. Will you write it?.I ought to say I go along with the spirit of I think Lord Grosvenor (word obliterated by smudging when the ink was wet). Froude says he can have three days to write it if it's going to make the May number. Froude was editor of Fraser's Magazine from 1861-74; George Otto Trevelyan (1838-1928 was a Member of Parliament from 1865-1888; Hugh Lupus Grosvenor (1825-1899) was an M.P. from 1847-69. The "passions of the situation" must have been the occurrence in Parliament two days prior to this letter - April 16, 1866 - when Grosvenor ".played a pivotal role in bringing down the Liberal government over their reform bill." (from the online "Victorian Commons"). The new government was able to pass the "Reform Bill of 1867", which broadly expanded the franchise to the common man. Faint mounting stains on the last page, a blank except for an ink "J.A. Franks" - someone couldn't decipher Froude's hasty signature.
