Is engaged in preparing a new popular cyclopaedia, and would be pleased if JH would contribute an article on Light.
Sees no objection to JH publishing a larger work on Light later if desired. Gives the names of some of the contributors to the Cyclopaedia.
Encloses a new prospectus of the Cabinet Cyclopaedia. Intends to write physical astronomy himself. William Whewell cannot write Sound. Has a stock in hand for three years.
Regrets to hear of JH's difficulties. Will consult the proprietors and let him know the answer later.
Has met the proprietors of the Cabinet Cyclopaedia. Would JH be agreeable to write an article on Astronomy or Optics, instead of Light? Will approach David Brewster regarding Light.
