Writer received recipient's favour on his return from the circuit; his proposed plan of opposition has been considered in every point of view by Danny Bear[c]roft and others; recipient should pursue the steps he mentions to hold the burgesses in Rayader disengaged; as Mr E[dward] L[ewis] has been totally silent, writer hopes to keep things quiet till the ?Q[uarte]r Sessions; he will attend to the hint given in recipient's postscript. [Draft; letter sent to Nantwilt by Mr Evans, Lwinbaried.].

Mr Ev[an] Tho[ma]s has declared for Chase Price; writer has rec[eive]d a list of encroachm[en]ts from the Treasury; recipient's recommendation of proper gamekeepers for the lords[hi]ps of Cymtydwr, St Harmon and Lanyre will have immediate attention; the contest is of a more serious nature to 'my good fri[e]nd' and his patron the noble lord than they ever before experienced; if the election should turn out contrary to writer's expectation, he will at least have tried the validity of those gent[lemen] who are now preparing to destroy 'our' rights; the sale of Kevenleece and other matters point out the necessity of restraining 'their' numbers; writer had only one denial - and that on Chase's acc[oun]t - during a canvass of N[ew] R[adnor]; the people are angry with the merchant, who lives in an alehouse at 1s.6 a day.

Draft.

The magistrates in the Road murder case were great simpletons; the girl would probably have confessed; the ill-reasoned Times article on the case.

Mesmerism is an old imposture rather than a new science; there has been no want of investigation by the medical profession; certain effects are produced on certain persons, particularly young women, by what is called mesmerism; physical contact has been abandoned of late years; historical instances of these 'eccentric affections'; Mesmer's original experiments were made upon assemblages; producing semi-conscious sleep may be turned to good account by physicians, but Mesmer was a quack; Miss Martineau has not been cured; she and others may be something between dupes and accomplices.
