Summary:

Is pleased to write letter to [G. P.] Dandelin for JH. JH should visit Mr. Van Rees at Liege, for which AQ will also write a letter of introduction. Nevertheless AQ believes JH's name suffices as introduction. If JH visits Namur, he should see the governor of the province, Mr. D'Omolius[?].
