'My Dear Sir, having appraized Lord Liverpool of the substance of what passed in conversation at Lord Buckinghams on Wednesday, I have now the honor to send you an extract of his answer to me, which I received this morning. I propose going to Brighton on Monday to attend the Council at which Lord Wellesley will be sworn in as Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. Should you wish to see me in the course of next week I shall, if not in Town, which you will learn either at my house or the office be most happy to receive you at Cray Farm where you will find a well [?] bed and [?] at home. I propose going into Norfolk on Saturday the 15th. Believe me dear sir yours very faithfully, Londonderry. '

The enclosed extract reads 'My Dear Londonderry, I am very much obliged to you for your letter. It was by pure accident, and certainly not from design, that I did not mention the circumstance to Lord Buckingham of Lord Sidmouths remaining in the Cabinet. I am glad you have had so full an explanation with them and Mr Wynne and I shall be happy to see the latter here, if he decides upon coming, and to give him every explanation in my power.'
