Autograph Letter Signed to the Bishop of Oxford
Samuel WILBERFORCE (1805-1873, Bishop, son of William Wilberforce) saying he has his note and “assure you that the subject to which it relates has not failed to engage my attention. Finding that a misapprehension had arisen out of your former conversation with Mr Shuttleworth relating to the school of Biddeston & that the application to the extent to which your lordship it appeared intended to carry it involved an entire departure from the practice of the office, I thought it better to lay the whole matter before a committee which was attended by Lor J. Russell & nearly all the members, by whose direction I believe the secretary must by this time have written to you, & acquainted you with this application but if he has not done so already, I will take care that the letter is immediately forwarded. I propose going abroad the end of next week...”, 4 sides 8vo., London, 21st July, no year but watermarked
