Some comments on JH's light and photography experiments, especially effects of different kinds of glass and fixing with ferrocyanate.
Sends JH pamphlet on intimate connection between a country's zoology and its political statistics. Regrets that JH wished not to be nominated for presidency of R.S.L. on returning from Cape.
Saturday's experiments have brought a severe inflammation of the eyes so has been unable to use the aerolite. Returns it, but will try some experiments later if JH sends it back.
