He mentions Andrew Johnston's letter to them describing the meeting with Glenelg and his own intention to devote himself to his pamphlet during Jun as a result of the encouragement received then. He would have some copies printed by the end of Jul and send a copy to each member of the government so that they might take the necessary steps to secure Fernando Po (Bioko), send an expedition to the Niger, and survey the coastal districts. He also intended to later work on the pamphlet to make it as lucid and brief as possible. He describes a visit to Hobhouse at the Board of Control to discuss slavery in India and mentions being given there some 'very important papers' on the subject which, on examination, turned out to be his own letter to Spring Rice and Anna's enclosures and a long report on the previous inquiry into the legality of slavery in India and the opinion of Hindu lawyers that it was indeed legal and would require an Act of Parliament to abolish it. Lushington had agreed to raise the matter in Parliament provided that he had the papers to work on. As a result, Buxton asks Anna to supply him with a list of them for Lushington to obtain himself or for them to collect for him at the Cottage. He was delighted at Lushington undertaking this task as it absolved him from going back into Parliament himself; if Lushington could manage this, he could stay out of Parliament permanently and they could all take on the slave trade question. He reports the defeat of the Boers at Dingaan and finally asks for the papers they had written on commerce.
