Needs help understanding Percades [?] quantity. Inquires as to well-being of family and sends regards.
Thanks JH for critiquing her paper during his illness. MS's On the Connexion of the Physical Sciences is to be published in translation at Cesna.
Enjoyed visit of Louisa [Herschel Marshall]. Wants copies of JH's new articles. Is witnessing a solar eclipse, in which half the disc was covered, as she writes.
