Excerpt from Select Speeches of the Right Honourable William Windham, and the Right Honourable William Huskisson: With Preliminary Biograpical Sketches He took his seat for the borough of St. Mawes, which the kindness of the Grenville family had secured for him as a retreat, in the event of a repulse at Norwich. His friends at the latter place, though his political connexion with them no longer existed, were unwilling to extinguish all recollection of it. They celebra ted his birth-day by annual meetings, which were fully attended; and they gave themselves the additional satisfaction of placing in their public hall, by means of a subscription, a well - executed portrait of him.
