Affairs at the Cape; thinks Andries Stockenström is the man to be sent out to negotiate with the Boers. Would like JH's views on the subject.
Will be pleased to avail himself of the offer of a bed when the council meets. Will prepare a paper on Alpha Orionis for the Friday meeting. Can FB give him any ideas for the Anniversary address?
