Excerpt from Life and Letters of Sir James Graham, Second Baronet of Netherby, P. C., G. C. B., 1792-1861, Vol. 1
I have derived help also from the published Lives of Sir James Graham by Mr. Mccullagh Torrens and by Dr. Lonsdale, in his Worthies of Cumberland; of. Lord John Russell by Sir Spencer Walpole; of Lord Palmerston by Lord Bulwer, Mr. Evelyn Ashley, and the Duke of Argyll; Of Lord Aberdeen and of Lord Herbert by Lord Stanmore and it need hardly be added of Mr. Gladstone by Mr. Morley. And I am indebted to Mrs. Drew for sanctioning publication of a confidential letter from her mother, Mrs. Gladstone.
Lastly, to Mrs. Charles Baring I owe warmest thanks for free use of all Sir James Graham's papers that could throw light upon his character and public work for aid given in choice of letters, in revising proofs, in suggestions tendered always with modest insistence on the sole responsibility of the writer; and not least for consent ingito record her own reminiscences of home life with her father. Sir Richard and Lady Cynthia Graham, too, I cordially thank for hospitalities at Netherby.
