Summary:

Has been prevented from answering his letter earlier by increased illness. If he returns to town he will have pleasure in meeting H. C. Schumacher. Believes the pound must be made of bell metal. Thought JH was on his way to the Cape, but sees his letter was written from Slough.

Obliged for the present of his papers. Will keep them until the catalogue arrives. The improvements in his 20' telescope are interesting; comments on this. Will obtain the troy pound as soon as Parliament meets.
