TO THE ELECTORS OF W,EST DERBY WARD.
GENTLEMEN,
AVING been honoured with an invitation to-offer
myself 'for Re-election as one of your Representatives
the Town Council, I feel called Upon by a due appreciation
of the kindness and consideration I have uniformly received
from you during the last'six years, again to, place my services
at your disposal.
Since,my last election, the:most important event in the
annals of the Corporation has taken place: I allude- to the
transfer of our Town •Dues. As a member of the committee
specially charged with the settlement of this question, I'joined
my colleagues in an anxious, endeavour to arrange as satis-
factory a .commutation as powerful adverse influences would
permit..
To all the other questions which have engaged the attention
of the. Council 1 have ever given my hest consideration.
I am not aware -that there is any, particular subject now
occupying attention, on which it is necessary that I should
here express my opinion:
I may be allowed toreumrk, that believing, as I have always
done, that .self-governnienf,in its various forms is the main
bulwark of our civil arid ieligious freedom, I shall strenuously
endeavour to preserve our municipal powers as amongst the
most cherished,rights of Englishmen. •
If it be your Pleasure to send me to the Council' for the
third tints as one of your members, I shall embark on my new
career with a determination to pursue the path which I
originally marked out. for myself, of a zealous attention to
each subject piesented to the Council or its Committees; pia-
fluenced by those extraneous elements which ought not, in my
opinion, to be imported into th 6 consideration of questions of
a purely local and special character. The wants of your ward
and•of tut-town generally shall be my only landmarks.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen, your faithful servant,
