Manchester, 25 November 1868 

Dear Moor, 

Enclosed returned the letters.* Jones is coo. indeed, and in every 
sense he has counted his chickens before they are hatched. He will 
scarcely find another place to elect him. Liserazs oF His calibre there 
are enough, and more than enough, ever since he identified 
himself with this variety. Even the great Dr Borchardt asked him 
(if one can believe Dr Borchardt) how he could identify himself in 
such a way with Bright and Gladstone, since he would certainly 
have to attack them in 5 years time. 

Nothing else new here. I have finally prevailed on Lizzie to let 
Gumpert treat her; so far she resisted, and said there was nothing 
wrong with her. He will probably have been there today. 
Incidentally, she was better today. 

Your 
F. E. 

Biichner” received with thanks.
