	Handbook of Texas Online:
		Arthur Goodall Wavell, English soldier of fortune and colonial empresario, was born in Edinburgh, Scotland, on March 20, 1785, the son of William Wavell.
		Wavell's efforts to promote the colony in England were fruitless, however, and Milam's attempts to draw colonists from the United States were hampered to a large degree by Mexico's hostility to slavery, without which the production of cotton was next to impossible.
		Wavell, therefore, dropped his Texas claims to pursue the study of the gunrafts then being developed by the Prussian navy, and he never again made mention of Texas in any of his correspondence.

		Cozier said a "strong, mature and experienced individual who won't abide discord and nonsense is essential", and proffered the 29-year-old Jamaica captain for the job.
		If his record of five hundreds and an average of 33 in 45 Tests is modest, it is no worse than others who lay claim to his place.
