| Description | Letter written from Highbury, Birmingham, dated 2 December and marked 'Private'. Chamberlain writes that he is generally in agreement with Lyttelton's despatch, however he remarks that Lyttelton has made a 'tactical mistake in being the first to suggest that the Conference should be postponed' as it allows the Radicals an easy way out of an 'embarrassing position'.
