Summary:

Grateful that AK withheld 'fanatical letter' addressed to Caroline Herschel. JH authorized Drummonds Bank in London to honor any check from [A. A.] Mühry up to £50 to pay for Caroline's needs. Tell Miss [Sophie] Beckedorff and Dr. Mühry to use this channel, rather than writing to JH directly.
