Summary:
Regrets delay in answering JH's communication, but was away from Bath when the letter arrived. Interested in the extraordinary local attraction observed by Mr. Duncan in 1791. Gives locations of three such situations in his recent voyage. Comments on the use of Peter Barlow's plate. Will write to Barlow before his next voyage.
