“I wrote about the requisition for calling a county-meeting to Mr. Taylor of Birmingham; and, in a very polite letter, he tells me he shall not be in Warwickshire, at the time of the meeting. I am glad to hear that Sir C. Mordaunt1 is disposed to favour our petition. I depend upon early information of the day, fixed by the sheriff. I am confident that Mr. Canning2 will do all that is right, in arranging the topics of the petition, and in selecting the speakers in the county-hall, &c.—S. P.”
