Buxton to Hannah Buxton, 26 Mar 1838
About his journey to Lushington's house from Northrepps, the discussion there of his letter to the Delegates with Beldam, Josiah Forster, Sir George Stephen, and Stokes, and the alterations made to it, which had caused him to dislike it. He writes of their decision to see Glenelg, their discussion of the government's position, and the line Buxton intended to take, his visit to Spring Rice, and his approval of Buxton's action, the exception taken by the Ministers to Brougham, and their trust of Buxton himself. He describes a visit he had paid to Crawford over the 'Iron Cause', another to the Anti-Slavery Committee to move some resolutions, and a third with a delegation to Glenelg. Annotated with a reference to Family Letters 1838. (Copy.)
