While the town was full of these subjects by turns now thinking and speaking of the great revival of trade now of the chances of the election, as yet some weeks distant now of the balls at Cranworth Court, in which Mr Cranworth had danced with all the belles of the shopocracy of Eccleston there came creeping, creeping, in hidden, slimy courses, the terrible fever that fever which is never utterly banished from the sad haunts of vice and misery, but lives in such darkness, like a wild beast in the recesses of his den.

Kings of Eccleston had Mr Cranworth and his ancestors been this many a long year; their right was so little disputed that they never thought of acknowledging the allegiance so readily paid to them.

In the evening, dining with the magistrates and lawyers, I heard good stories, among them some characterizing various eminent members of the profession, and of these I especially remember one at the expense of the late Lord Chancellors Westbury and Cranworth.

Very faithfully yours, The Bishop of London was elected on the same night with you, and it may interest you to know that the members present were: Lord Lansdowne. Lord Clarendon. Sir H. Holland. Sir David Dundas. The Dean of St. Paul's. Sir Charles Eastlake. Lord Stanley. Lord Cranworth. Lord Stanhope. Duke of Argyll. To Madame de Tocqueville 62 Rutland Gate, April 17th.

The professional cook of the town had been already engaged to take up her abode for a month at Mr Bradshaw's, much to the indignation of Betsy, who became a vehement partisan of Mr Cranworth, as soon as ever she heard of the plan of her deposition from sovereign authority in the kitchen, in which she had reigned supreme for fourteen years.

At the time when this page is written, there are four ex-Chancellors in receipt of pensions Lords Brougham, St. Leonards, Cranworth, and Westbury; but death has recently diminished the roll of Chancellors by removing Lords Truro and Lyndhurst.

I must get him a proper nurse, somehow or somewhere, for all my being a Cranworth man. Ah, Mr Benson! you don't know the temptations we medical men have. Think, if I allowed your member to die now, as he might very well, if he had no nurse how famously Mr Cranworth would walk over the course! Where's Mrs Denbigh gone to?

It is inexpressibly pleasing to me to receive so many marks as I do of the kindness and affection of my friends; and if any or all of those who professed a disposition to come and see me would do so, I should be delighted to receive them, collectively or individually. I have a letter from Cranworth this morning, most kindly offering to come down here on Saturday next.

Mrs Bradshaw sighed and bemoaned herself in all her leisure moments, which were not many, and wondered why their house was to be turned into an inn for this Mr Donne, when everybody knew that the George was good enough for the Cranworths, who never thought of asking the electors to the Hall; and they had lived at Cranworth ever since Julius Caesar's time, and if that was not being an old family, she did not know what was.

Two hundred more we may calculate upon as pretty certain factory hands, or people connected with our trade in some way or another who are indignant at the stubborn way in which Cranworth has contested the right of water; two hundred are doubtful." "Don't much care either way," said the parliamentary agent. "Of course, we must make them care."
