Part of David Livingstone, Papers
I take a geologist and artist in order to send back to my countrymen full information respecting the vegetable and mineral resources of the land and this with (intent) to benefit both Africa and England... sometimes my mind ventures to indulge in the idea of an English colony yet springing up in some districts in which my feet have trod and that would be a glorious thing for the progress of Africa - the English bad as they are still are the best portion of humanity.
Refers to members of the expedition and their salaries and that they take on iron house with them to impress the natives.
There is an inscription in a different hand at the top of the first page. Whitwell Elwin ? Rectory, Norfolk (late Editor 'Quarterly Review') 22/8/1971.
