Summary:
JDH writes to inform his uncle [Reverend John Gunn] that H. Christy will send him a set of [geological] specimens from the Dordogne cave, which illustrate the strata where relics of man are found. They will be sent through Falconer. JDH wishes to show Gunn some of his Wedgwood pottery: a plaque by John Flaxman showing Achilles & Hector at Troy, a medallion of Mitten & Erasmus by Goldsmith, & one of the Prince & Princess of Wales along with 40 other portraits. In a note added under the signature he adds that Grove has told him about flint implements found in a cave at Bethlehem.
