Sir William Molesworth, Bart. M.P. 1845. Portrait of British politician Sir William Molesworth, 8th Baronet....the successful candidate for the [London] Borough of Southwark in the recent election...one of an old and wealthy Cornish family. Molesworth paid f £ 6000 for a reprint of the entire writings of the philosopher Thomas Hobbes, which were placed in many English university and provincial libraries: The great objection urged against him by his opponents in the present contest is the fact of his having edited an edition of the Works of Hobbes, of Malmesbury, a speculative philosopher, defunct about a century, and one of those celebrated English authors whom everybody has heard of and nobody has read. From " Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII
