Clarendon re-entered the cabinet in May 1864 as Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster, and, upon the death of Lord Palmerston in 1865, Lord Russell again became prime minister, when Lord Clarendon returned to the foreign office, for the third time upon the formation of Gladstone's administration in 1868. He died surrounded by the boxes and papers of his office on 27th June 1870.
