Title | John Gisborne junior at Derby to Sir John Gell - suggestion of a compromise of the election between the Churchmen and dissenters, which succeeded for the county, for the town, which Gell approved - upon news of a new Parliament and upon discussing the matter with Churchmen, finds that they will name no-one but Mr Cooke of Melbourne, who is not acceptable to Gell's friends, who wish for Mr Spateman, Cornelias Clarke or Sir Edward Abney - believes Gell's son, his son-in-law Mr Eyre or Mr Wilmot would be acceptable to the Churchmen - if the affair is not settled by agreement, Mr Vernon will get in - 10 or 12 men on each side are to meet in 2 or 3 days time - despairs of success unless Gell can get his son, Mr Eyre or Mr Wilmot to stand with Cooke. 4 Aug |
