atNTI.EstEN;
THE flattering manner in which you have been
pleased to elect me to the distinguished position of one of your
representatives in Parliament demands my warmest acknowledg
' /Vents.
For the good opinion manifested towards me by the constituency
at large, as well as by the gentlemen who invited me to become a
candidate, I am deeply grateful ; and I feel justly proud of the high
honour conferred upon me under such gratifying circumstances.
Accessible at all times when my services may be required, it will
be my constant endeavour to deserve your continued favour and con-
fidence, by attention to your local affairs and to the important corn-
Mercial and shipping interests of this great metropolis. You may
also rely upon my adhering to that course of public duty which I
have pursued during the last twelve years in the House of Commons,
as the advocate of civil and religious liberty, freedom of commerce,
and of economical government, and which was yesterday ratified by
the unanimous approval of the constituency of the city of London.
I have the honour to be, Gentlemen,
Your faithful and obliged servant,
JAMES DUKE.
