Summary:

JH's kind letter and enclosures came when she was ill, which accounts for the delay in replying. Is exceedingly grateful for all the autographs. Her brother-in-law [R. S. Newall] has erected a 25" telescope at Gateshead and doubtless would be pleased to show it to JH. Would be grateful for any photographs to go with the autograph collection.
