In Middlesex a heated election scene unfolds at the poll with Wood Pownall and Byng praised by supporters. Hume defends reform, attacks ministerial measures, and denounces Tory opposition. The speech highlights religious liberty, magistrate power, Irish justice, and the reform legacy amid a closely watched two-seat contest.
In a defiant speech the defeated candidate laments widespread ignorance in moral and political subjects, calls for national education, and defends his integrity against charges of vote buying while urging the Liberal party to persist. He praises civil and religious liberty and thanks Reformers who supported him amid a Tory opposition backlash.
The Rev Mr Getnppop is chosen president of the Wesleyan Methodist conference. In borough elections Wesleyans in Salford show independence, voting three fourths for Mr Brotherton.
