Copy letter from an unknown correspondent, to Mr Pilbeam, Whitehall Rooms, Hôtel Métropole 'It is now nearly certain that the Prime Minister will not be able to be present. We shall, however, have to assign a place for him, & your men can remove the chair if he does not come. Please tell your doorkeeper not to challenge the Prime Minister if he comes wthout ticket, as he probably will if he comes at all'. 27 November 1891
