pp 22,23 1842 Feb 18. Buxton to Lushington, announcing that he had arrived at Earlham, that the least exertion knocked him up now and so he was inclined to take the advice of his partner, Robert Hanbury, not to show his face in London again for a year. He claims that the evening he had spent at Lushington's house he had been persuaded against his own judgment by his friend's powers of advocacy. Since he could not, himself, convince him he would see what he could do to persuade Acland to his way of thinking that sudden attacks on their settlement could not be warded off by twice-yearly visits of a steamer. He asks him, if he disapproved of the letter he proposed either to send Stanley, to send it on with a letter informing Stanley that it was impossible for them to speak with Buxton about it as he was ill in the country, or to send for his consideration a draft of the letter they thought he ought to write.
