Dr Sotheron

I think a general meeting should be held of Members attached to representing the agricultural interest, which should after discussing the present state of the position affairs should result in appointing a committee of five or seven to propose and venture a plan for of united action – for union is strength – This plan should consent to the repeal of the Corn laws – but repudiate the details of the present measure – and propose another afterwards to be approved and adopted by a similar meeting – Such a plan might possibly repudiate the details of the Members’ Measure
