Would like very much to see JH as soon as possible. Has an instrument of [J. C.?] Schenk to show him. There is one on the way to him now from Paris.
Cannot leave the instrument with Edward Troughton later than Saturday. Perhaps Troughton had better leave the instrument in the box until GE calls.
[J. C.?] Schenk has reason to be grateful to JH for all his assistance. Schenck's friends can now judge whether it will be expedient to bring Schenk to London to set up in business. Awaits anxiously the verdict of Edward Troughton.
Discusses the pros and cons of GE's proposal that [J. C.?] Schenck, a Swiss maker of optical instruments, set up a business in London. JH is not sure that JH ascended Mt. Rosa, but is certain of JH's barometric reading. Interested in GE's method of estimating air temperature.
