Dear Talbot –
I will by the Coach of tomorrow, send you a small bag of copper ore pounded small for the assayers, & two tin boxes of tin ore of different kinds.
Many thanks for your Photogenies. 1 The figure of (Guy Fox?) in your Hall is quite beautifully minute; & all the copies are great improvements on what I have seen before –
You have enlarged the field, & got rid of the indistinctness which used to prevail near the margin of the picture. I have been disappointed of all my migratory pleasures, & last of all have given up Mt Edgcumbe 2 –The only compensation I look forward to is Mary; 3 who comes here on Saturday.
My Love to Lily & Horatia. 4
Yrs very sincerely C Lemon
