A number of options are proposed by JH to help GA solve his problem with the mercury level [see GA's 1856-4-14]; JH is feeling much better but fears he may 'never again be able to walk.'
Has no actinometers available [see GA's 1856-4-23], but tells GA where he can get one; rhapsodizes about the beauty of nature around him, and the silliness of a person.
[Reply to GA's [1856-4-6 or earlier] on Mohamet's coffin theory.] Congratulations on GA's son winning a scholarship. JH's health is better, but he cannot walk yet.
Plans to sell JH's property at Upton, including tenement Holloway occupies, to neighbors.
Happy to hear that [new Sydney mint] is going well. JH confined with painful illness since Mar. 1855; still unable to walk or stand upright without support. Aluminium may be used in coins, but JH doubts it will replace iron in pots and pans. War is ended, but people worry about further Russian aggression.
