Has JH any comments on the first volume of JM's Logic, which the publisher wishes to prepare for a second edition.
Thanks for his remarks, which will be attended to. Comments on the various alterations he will make in line with JH's criticisms.
The first volume of JM's Logic has been printed and the printers require what is ready of the second volume. In Book Three would like comments from JH regarding the difference with P. S. Laplace's theories.
Continues JH's defense of Laplace's writings on probabilities [see JH's 1845-12-22].
A note to accompany a working out in convenient form an example of Laplace's probability ideas. [Enclosure not found.]
JH's second letter has convinced him. Has now written a new conclusion to the chapter showing the principles of P. S. Laplace in a new light. Does not think Laplace's example is a fair type. Has already rewritten the chapter on the Doctrine of Chances.
