Thanks for the letter delivered by Mrs. Freeman. Has now had authority from Charles Grant (Baron Glenelg) to put JH's educational scheme into practice. Professor J. R. Innes has been put in charge of the educational system. News of the Andries Stockenström investigation will please JH. Comments on the political scene at the Cape. Hopes to assist [Alexander?] Hutchinson.
Would JH communicate with C. H. Phipps (1st Marquis of Normanby) to speed up the dispatch of the four teachers selected for the Cape educational system. Frontier is quiet except for some cattle stealing. Safe arrival of GN's daughter in England.
