Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland. - Hears from Charles that Robert was in the Gallery [of the House of Commons] on Friday; asks what Robert thought of Charles's speech and its reception, as well as the debate in general. Several friends, including John Morley, have written to him; one (not Morley) says the Tories 'received any allusion to conciliation savagely'. They have no guests until Charlie comes. Has ben reading the letters of T. E. Browne [sic: Brown], the old Clifton master; some passages are very clever, though 'he was quite unkempt and half-civilised'. Sends love to Elizabeth.
