Autograph Letter Signed marked ‘Private’ to ‘my dear NELSON’
(Horatio, 3rd Earl, 1823-1913, Politician) thanking him for his “paper. Why don’t you bring in a bill. I am very anxious that any one who has ideas with reference to the improvement of th House of Lords should put them into a definite Shape, in which we can examine them. The proposition that a certain reform is necessary is one suitable for consideration. There is no initial objection to it. But the proposition that the House is bad and needs reforming somehow is a very different one - & could not be adopted in the form of a resolution or a motion for Committee without giving a dangerous foothold to the enemy...”, 3 sides 8vo., Foreign Office headed paper, 16th February

(Sir William James Richmond, 1822-1902, Merchant and Conservative MP) saying that he will "be very sorry if Mr Vaughan is rejected & from your account of him it is evident that if such an event does happen it can only arise from some private antipathy on the part of a few of those who are voting.

Any interposition of mine would have the danger of being condemned as intrusive & might influence the balloting adversely ...", 3 sides 8vo., together with an unsigned cabinet photo by Elliott & Fry showing him and shoulders looking slightly to his right, 6½" x 4¼", no place, no date, the letter on Hatfield House headed paper, 12th March
