pp 441 a-d 1840 Oct 16. Buxton to Priscilla Johnston, saying that he agreed with all she had said about Edward in her letter and that he was going to show it to Samuel Gurney and persuade him and Elizabeth to take the same line. Later he writes that it had been arranged that Edward should be off work for some months though they did not know where he and his family could go for peace. He announces that he was leaving for Halesworth the next day and asks Andrew to meet him, suggesting that he might inspect a horse the local clergyman had found for him on the Saturday afternoon. He expresses irritation with the churchmen of Norfolk for not finding Wiseman to their taste and so making the cause of Africa suffer. He mentions his anxiety at the report given of Hannah's health, comments that the meeting at the Fry's the day before had been excellent and hints that he had intended to ask Sir Edward Parry something.
