Relieved that news of death of King [George III] did not weaken William Herschel. Will see JH and Lady Mary Pitt Herschel in Bath in April. Lady Watson and Miss Joy are not well.
Planning to come to London in April or May to attempt to settle at India House the remainder of his natural history collection and unless easily arranged "the whole for me may go to the devil". Hopes Smith received a copy of his "Hindu Genealogies".
