Date23 August 1881
WriterGladstone, William Ewart
AddresseeVictoria, Queen
DescriptionNegotiations with France require skill and caution. The loss of the Treaty will be greater to France than to England. Gladstone will consider the names of those suggested by the Prince for Baronetcies. Gladstone says the wrath of the Parnellites is due to their fear that the (Irish) Land Act will undermine the power of the Leaders and re-establish tranquillity. Numerically an insignificant fraction in the Commons.
