Rawlins, marked 'Private'. Cobden announces 'If we, in Manchester, found it necessary to confine ourselves to the one question of the corn laws - we who have a strong party there for reform as witness the character of its representatives - how much more necessary must it be for you in Liverpool, who have no other standing ground on which you have the least chance of beating the old enemy, the Tories' and continues to add 'I should say it would be madness for you to hoist any other flag than that of the League. What little of parity & public spirit you have amongst your constituency you owe to the free trade agitation. Stick to that for one more election & something may evolve from it which may hereafter enable you to send a couple of good reformers. Your present men are the best upon the whole that Liverpool has returned in my day'. Some very light, minor age wear and creasing, VG C. E. Rawlins served as Chairman of the Complete Suffrage Association and was part of the Liverpool delegation to the Anti-Corn Law League's large demonstration in the Free Trade Hall at Manchester in April 1843.
