Two copy letters from Lord Grey to Lieut. Col. [Edward Venables] Townshend. Thanks him for sending the petition from Chester and asks him to discuss the matter with the officers of the King's Regiment of Cheshire Yeomanry Cavalry. Lord Grey thinks Chester a more appropriate venue than Liverpool, but does not consider it advisable to apply for a call-out this year.
