14 Gt. Queen St., Westminster - Could WW supply him with information concerning a Trinity man called John William Watson. Sends WW a copy of the Morning Post newspaper of Feb. 28th containing an article on the 'Corn Laws': 'I have only taken one sample for the proof of the paradox - the more corn, the more pasture produced or its equivalent for sheep and cattle'. From the Humber to Sherborne in Dorset runs a line of lime stone hills. If you take the duties on cottons (from the Prussian tariffs), it is clear that none but the finest manufactured article can enter the German Union.'
