Re the pamphlet The Six-Year-Old Parliament and its Approaching Dissolution, published in 1865, which mentions Lord John Russell: "The affirmation of Lord John Russell's resolutions defeated the manoeuvre of the Tory leader; it preserved the integrity of the county constituencies, and saved the boroughs from faggot votes and a 'rectification of their frontiers' dangerous to independence."
