My Dear Sir
Having a paper to be read next week before the Royal Society, respecting a new Art of Design 3 which I discovered about five years ago, viz. the possibility of fixing upon paper the image formed by a Camera Obscura; or rather, I should say, causing it to fix itself, I should be most happy to show to you specimens of this curious process. If you could not make it convenient to call here, Slough has now become so accessible by the railway that I would take a drive there any day if you would appoint an hour
Believe me Yours most truly
H. F. Talbot
