Heathfield.
Sept^r 29. 1847.

Dear Sir,

I have no objection to the arrangement which you propose, except that you do not mention the sum which I should recieve [sic] on the sale of large and small Talbotypes. ¹ I sh^d like to know how much I sh^d realize by the sale of 6 of these respectively.

With respect to the coloured copies, I only hope that Henneman ² has not sold one of these as I desired expressly that they sh^d not be either exhibited or sold unless you wished to take them.

I have never wished to force them on you, and only begged repeatedly that I might have them back, if you did not wish to have them.

I again make this request, and shall be much obliged to recieve [sic] them as soon as possible since I wish to dispose of them elsewhere.

I am confirmed in my opinion that the price is low by my old drawing master M^r J. D. Harding; ³ the operation is very delicate and difficult to perform well and I am happy to say that I have lately advanced in it.

Yours very truly
Calvert R. Jones.
