Would like him to come to dinner next Saturday.
Regarding the inscription, and why he has recast it instead of altering it.
Hopes his second paper will not falsify the opinion. Would like his objections or comments.
Hopes he will be more pleased with the version of the epitaph he is enclosing. Would like to discuss it with him if he has the time to spare.
Has been very busy and has only now had a chance to work on the inscription. Suggests various forms. Would like his comments on these.
Would like him to come to dinner next Saturday.
