Has arranged for the missing parts of their journal to be forwarded. His own health is good.
Has been wandering over Europe for the last two years and has only just heard of JH's gift of his Cape Results. Is grateful for the gift and the memories it invokes. Comments on the present political scene at the Cape.
Has not heard from him for a long time or his letter was not delivered and the unrest in Europe has not encouraged him to write letters. Sends articles, also part of a book, which he has been trying to get published by an English publisher. Would like the advice of JH on this effort.
Thanks JH for a copy of a scientific manual (Admiralty Manual?).
Returns a letter from Thomas Maclear to FB, and then JH expresses his concern about the state of health and work of Maclear.
