The livery had to return no more than two names to the court of aldermen, with whom the final choice of lord mayor lay, and the preliminary submission to the livery of three instead of the customary two names gave it the opportunity of which it availed itself, of excluding any court candidate even from nomination. The names of Alderman Beckford and of his friend Trevitthick were, after a poll on 6 Oct., alone returned by the livery to the aldermen. |
