Summary
Concerning a recent visit at Brougham, Lord Brougham's advancing age, his preparation of his "Bradford discourse", which Normanby fears "will be too long for his physical strength which is not what it was", and how he is much pestered by the youngest son of William Brougham; commenting on the current state of Tuscany; reminding Blaze de Bury of his previous request for a copy of (Henry Wikoff's) A New Yorker in the Foreign Office.
