Buxton to Glenelg, about an enclosed letter from Jamieson on Becroft, recommending a Wesleyan missionary, Fox, for the task of obtaining the treaties with African chiefs because of his knowledge of the Gambia and his acquaintanceship with a number of chiefs; also about the research he had carried out on the treaties already made or offered in Africa, his conclusions on the smallness of the sums expended in obtaining them, and his belief that the whole thing might be done far more cheaply than Glenelg imagined, 9 Dec 1838
