Summary:
[Third draft] Just returned from presenting copies [of JH's Cape Results] to Queen and Prince Albert at Cambridge. Sends two copies to AP and 'Duchess Dowager.' Exploring ways to have copies delivered overseas by foreign ambassadors. Kings of Prussia and Denmark were omitted on JH's list. Wilhelm Struve will carry copies to Altona and St. Petersburg. May JH begin distributing copies to recipients in Great Britain?
