Dear Mr Date,
Thank you for yr: letter.
I fear I am sitting now at the other end of the Chamber from the Bishops, and so cannot communicate with them (really or even fictionally).
I shd: be sorry if the present House were interfered with. If the Commons did interfere and made a second Chamber which was elected they would be making a rod for their own backs.
Yrs: sincerely:
