' (The attempt failed. ) D. May 15. — ' Yesterday, after a ride, I attended the House of Laymen, and seconded the tribute to Lord Selborne. Cave gave notice to move Lord Ashcombe Chairman to-day. . . . Norton put forward my name, and there was a practically unanimous, and gratifying, response, but I had told him before, and feel, that the objections to my undertaking the duty are manifold and insuperable, age being a not inconsiderable one, and the dear mother's health a greater. ' D. May 16. —... ' I attended the House of Laymen, where Ashcombe was unanimously elected Chairman, and, I feel sure, will do well. ' D. May 24. — ' The Queen completes her 76th year.
