Glad to see RM's geological labors on The Silurian System completed.
Writes in great haste, thanking RM on behalf of Lady Herschel for taking 'trouble,' especially for 'Literary Tributes' apparently sent for Lady H's album.
The Silurian System is now at the binders, and he is now relaxing and doing Christmas visiting. Proposes to write to the editor of the Annals of Philosophy giving details of the vase to be presented to JH to mark his Cape sojourn. Can also send the literary effusions to Lady Herschel if she desires them.
