TO THE LIVERY OF LONDON.
C/ENTLISISEN,—I have the honour to inform you that the election
t 0 the vacant office to which I aspire will take place at the Guildhall
°n FRlnav next, the 2d of March, at Eleven o'clock ; and I venture
to_ express the hope that I may be favoured with the presence of as
',nY of those kind friends who, on public and personal grounds, re-
-I.3saY claims to be worthy of their support, as can without much
rivenience attend the nomination of candidates.
The spontaneous renewal of the pledges which, on the occasion of
"7. last contest, secured for me 2,445 votes, and the additional
it dial promises with which I have been favoured in the present
it;lll,gifle from many who were formerly among my active but
cui°,trable opponents, convince me that nothing can peril the Qe-
ItY of my election but that relaxation in the exertions of my
eu PPorters which might be the result of too great confidence in my
success.
While, , I should doing j to own
htli
gr_ nga didtherefore I not take thisbe opportunitygreat in
of expressingustice saymy
very
ateful sense of the cordial and most effective zeal of the gentlemen
wh°s• strenuous assistance I am conscious I must be indebted for
thY election, I take the liberty to solicit from their kindness the fur-
: ) treat obligation of a vigilant continuance of their activity in my
galf, Until the fate of this contest shall have been finally decided.
I have the honour to remain, Gentlemen,
Tour mach obliged and faithful servant,
GEORGE LEDGER.
