Talks about their son Alexander's nature, and JH's busy weekend and headaches.
In response to RB's letter of 1854-12-15, JH states that the manuscript of Lieut. Burton's travels was not given to JH for transmission, JH has never heard of RB in connection with this manuscript, nor had JH received an earlier letter, and finally JH does not have the manuscript.
