William Empson
To:
Sir John Herschel
Date:
20 July [1848]
Source of text:
RS:HS 7.61
Summary:

Francis Jeffrey (Lord Jeffrey) may be able to go on holiday. Does JH know anything about a Capt. J. T. Smith who has been named as a reviewer for C. R. Weld's History of the R.S.? Sorry to hear he has misgivings about the second part of Kosmos; may change his mind later.
