Sending details of a case of mesmerism known to him. Met one of his sons the other day. Pleased to hear JH is to become a Crown Commissioner. Wishes Mr. Naish was accessible to JH.
Sends a copy of the Globe newspaper with the critique on Karl Reichenbach. Sorry to hear JH will be travelling southwards. The West country is very attractive. Is pleased to hear JH is a Commissioner.
Congratulations on his success. Outlines persons to call on when in France. Met H. S. Fox-Strangways (3rd Earl of Ilchester) at Exeter. Has met a friend who has read Karl Reichenbach's book and believed it.
Thinks JH is the man for Cambridge.
Was pleased with JH's reply to his offer. Has just returned from Poole. Remembers Mary Baldwin. Long discussion on politics.
Hopes he is on the way back from his travels. Has been corresponding about the Black Prince. Nothing to add about mesmerism, but biology is strong at Glasgow. Agricultural matters seem to be improving. Has left Scotland and is travelling around.
Hopes he will do what is best with the sum of money. Is most anxious he should have the letter.
Is pleased he asked his help in obtaining security, but could not offer more than £3,000 as his lands are heavily mortgaged.
Was pleased to receive JH's reply concerning the surety. His trip to London did him good. Curious JH should come under Sir George Grey. He has a mortgage on his property of £20,000. There is a society that will insure any sum of money.
