Denman was noted for his eccentricities. From 1884 he sat as a crossbencher, and introduced a number of bills on women's suffrage, none of which gained a second reading. 4pp., 12mo. Bifolium with mourning border. The first page heavily-spotted, and with the cross-written signature over-written, probably by a child; otherwise lightly-aged and worn. Denman begins by informing him that he is going to send him a book: 'Thevenot Voyage [sic] Curieux, it has the Embassies of your name sake in 1616 to the Great Mogul you have his Arms & quarter wheat sheaf it is in French, and the name is spelt Rhoe'. He has given a copy of the book in one volume to the House of Lords Library. He 'heartily' congratulates him on his 'well deserved honor'. The letter continues: 'You will be pleased to see there is progress in Women's Suffrage which the Duke of Rutland has revived and Mr. Gladstone has apologized for his mistake being unaware of the ladies desire for it Sir Henry James will have to approve it, when it comes to the House of Commons'. In Denman's view 'Gladstone should accept a peerage as the first Earl of Chatham did he would improve the House of Lords you tell him so first opportunity'. Denman also wishes he 'will be able to make us a visit again'.
