I don't have the UK version to check this, but I remember when reading it at the Library that a line of text was cut from the scene where the Dragons make their own equations. Immediately after the line "May it have gold hinges, like that one?" is the line "although the hinges in question were only made out of brass". It then continues as normal, but with the opening to the next paragraph in another order and connected to the same sentence. [[User:Almaron|Almaron]] 03:19, 9 September 2010 (PDT)

I need to do some more research on the matter, but I believe that history differs in this book surrounding William Wilberforce. In this book, his campaign in parliament to stop slavery loses due to the words of Admiral Nelson. Historically, I think he succeeded in abolishing it, but I don't know if he succeeded at that exact meeting or not, so we should add this to the article once more research is done.

I believe you are correct. Nelson actually died in 1805, so he was not alive to stop the 1807 bill. -- Strangerface 20:47, 27 August 2010 (PDT)
