In the autumn and winter of 1832 I read in The Times some extracts from the evidence taken before Sadler's Committee. I was astonished and disgusted by what I read. I wrote to Sadler offering my services. In February the Rev. George Bull asked me to take up the question that Sadler had been forced to drop. I can perfectly recollect my astonishment, and doubt, and terror, at the proposition. How does the speaker seem to feel about the proposition the Rev. George Bull gave him?
A. He thinks it was a bad idea that no one should consider.
B. He thinks it was important but frightening work.
C. He thinks it was too difficult to complete or even try.
D. He thinks it was an amusing idea, but he had no time.
