Mea Culpa, Sir William Gregory

Dr. Thelma Gunawardena, former Director of the National Museum, gently informed me that the Museum was founded by Governor William Gregory and NOT Wilmot Horton who vandalised Byron’s Memoirs. "A thousand apologies" to the shade of Sir William and many thanks to Dr. Thelma for setting me right.
