He was accused by Gell himself to the Committee for being familiar with a whore and for disclosing to her secrets of the Committee took an oath of secrecy, which oath Buxton gave them but took it not himself - the parties were both examined and could not deny the fact. Mr Buxton is not displaced for the present but all business and secrets are kept from him. |
