Summary:

Asks Smith to thank Dr [Henry] Reeve for his thesis as due to long illness has been unable to do it himself, and to let Reeve know his library is open to him any time. Remarks on Smith's visit to Liverpool; compliments [James] Currie's talents and desires introduction to [William] Roscoe. Happy to offer Smith his assistance with "Flora Graeca" if needed. Experimenting with rearing turkeys in Lincolnshire, asks Mrs Smith to send a Norfolk turkey once a fortnight for comparison. Lady Banks would like a large box of Valentine cakes.
