It presents an appeal to London electors to give their 'Poll and Interest' to Thomas Harley, Sir Robert Ladbroke, and William Beckford, to be three of the four MPs elected in the contest, dated 16 March. This is combined with a state of the poll for the evening of 21 March, and a notice of the times when polling will take place on the following day (22 March), and of the venues that will be 'opened for the Reception of our Friends'.
