Colonel J W Gordon to Samuel Whitbread II

30 September 1809

From: 1809 To: 1809

Lord Grey will not come up. Lord Grenville will not cooperate with the present ministers. Perceval must therefore do the best he can. Ministers have no judge of character. Secret rumour gives Robert Dundas Lord Castlereagh's place, & Lord William Bentinck that of Lord L[eveson] Gower.
