The General Election: Mr. Disraeli at the market ordinary, Aylesbury, on Saturday last, 1874. 'Mr. Disraeli, accompanied by his private secretary, Mr. Montague Corry, dined at the Farmers' Ordinary at the George Hotel, Aylesbury, on Saturday afternoon, and the company after dinner adjourned to the Assembly Rooms for his speech...He began with a complaint of the manner in which Mr. Gladstone had suddenly dissolved Parliament. It was an unfair attempt to catch the country by surprise...In conclusion, Mr. Disraeli promised to uphold the institutions of the country, the rights of the people, and the honour of the county of Buckingham. He was repeatedly cheered throughout his speech'. From "Illustrated London News", 1874.
