Not all facts in this article are correct. William Wilberforce retired from Parliament before the 1832 Reform Act; abolition was passed in 1833, though it did not come into force until 1838. Also, two of the figures in the attached picture are not correctly identified in the body of the text. For the official testimony of Forster's life by his Monthly Meeting see London Yearly Meeting, "Testimonies Concerning Deceased Ministers. Presented to the Yearly Meeting of Friends, Held in London, 1855," (1855), pp 14-29. 76.18.183.81 (talk) 04:10, 15 April 2009 (UTC) |
