Excerpt from Report on the County of Norfolk
I made a point of being in Norwich, and of attending the market, on market days, and I also attended the annual fat stock Show which was held during my stay.
The council of the Norfolk Chamber of Agriculture were good enough to nominate several of their members, living in different parts of the county, who undertook to give me assistance. I was able to take advantage of the kindly services of most of the gentlemen so appointed, and in nearly every instance arrangements were made for me to meet a. Number of representative men at the houses of my hosts, as well as to visit others in the neighbourhood so far as time permitted. I desire at the outset to express my deep sense of the readiness with which, on all hands, help was afforded to me, and of the great kindness and hospitality with which I was everywhere received.
