Sir
On referring to Parkes’ Essays 1 I find that the employment of Gentlemen & the sons of the Nobility in the manufacture of Glass, was confined to France, but as the account is interesting from its bearing on the argument of highly educated [sic] employing themselves in the Arts of Manufacture, I have the pleasure to send you the work itself; you will find the account commencing at Page 351. –
I remain Sir Yours &c
