    • Excerpt from Recollections of a Long Life He very favourable reception accorded by the public to the first instalment of Lord Broughton's Recollections, which appeared in the summer of 1909, and especially the advice I received, of indisputable value, and on which I place implicit reliance, have induced me to continue tho publication of these Diaries and Memoirs down to the year 1834. The interest of the first two volumes was chiefly centred in Hobhouse's personal experience of the events which culminated in the Battle of Waterloo, and in Ms intimate friendship with Lord Byron. Tho leading feature of these two present volumes is the progress of Home Politics, and especially the events which led up to Roman Catholic Emancipation in 1829 and the Reform Bill of 1832.
