Title	9 February 1872 Lord G H Cavendish, 3 Upper Eccleston Street, SW [to William Longsdon]. Son forwarded letter to writer. Told Mr Barber that not at last Petty Sessions but understood Longsdon and Nesfield both strongly opposed to paying Magistrates' Clerks by salaries. Self no strong opinion. If there may be objections in principle to present system writer told Mr Barber they do not come home to them as they have a most painstaking and trust worthy clerk, if as seems possible, table of fees revised and such fees as swearing in constables knocked off there might be a loss to County. If as seems fair salaries of present clerks should be fixed on basis of average receipts for last 5 or 7 years. If fees remain same does not see what public will gain. However in these days must live and learn and writer is open to conviction.
