Appendix E

Missing Speeches

Mill seems to have attended few public meetings at which he did not speak. On only two occasions is it known that he made some remarks of which no report has been discovered.

1. 9 July, 1870. The Land Tenure Reform Association met at the Freemason’s Tavern. Reports appeared in The Times, 12 July, p. 12, and in The Bee-Hive, 16 July, p. 342, the latter saying that Mill made “a short address” from the chair.

2. 6 August, 1870. The Representative Reform Association met in their offices, 9 Buckingham Street, Strand. The reports of 8 August in The Times, p. 10, and the Pall Mall Gazette, p. 6, say that following the paper read by the chairman, Thomas Hare, on the progress of proportional voting in various counties, Mill was among those who took part in the discussion.
