1829 WILLIAM WILBERFORCE. Letter Regarding Potential Bribery to Long-Time Friend, Francis Freeling. Americana O for the Holy fireA very attractive letter and, unusually, entirely in the hand of Wilberforce. By 1829, his eyesight was so poor, he rarely penned letters, but dictated them and then would sign in his own hand. The present appears to be perhaps a case of attempted bribery, in which an expensive packet was sent to Wilberforce, but Freeling, by now the head of the Royal Post for England, had sent him a letter warning him of its arrival and that he should not open it.
