Summary:

Sends this letter by an Armenian minister from Vienna, who would like to become acquainted with prominent men and institutions of England. He will also carry back the gold chronometer for His Excellency. Will send payment for the chronometer as soon as he knows the amount due. JH's work on Light has made a great impression. Will any of JH's countrymen be attending the Vienna meeting in September?
