My dear Talbot

I was put in the chair of a committee of Trinity Men yesterday assembled for the purpose of collecting by a subscription of 2^gs (as a maximum) the means of offering to Peacock on resigning the Fellowship – mark of respect for his services. I was requested to seek co-operation which must justify me in troubling you with this letter

Will you join us?

Yours very faithfully
Monteagle
