The present study reestablishes that the expansion procedure given in Roberts and Webb (1978), and its extension in the present paper to a slender magnetic flux tube in a uniform atmosphere with negligible gravity (including the effect of pressure variations in the external medium), is supported by an independent analysis of the special case of a uniform tube in a uniform atmosphere. A general form of the dispersion relation for a slender tube is obtained and its reduction under differing conditions is discussed. This analysis reveals that Wilson's (1978, 1979) criticism of the authors' original paper is ungrounded. The slender flux tube approximation appears to be a valid means of investigating motions in an intense magnetic flux tube.
