Sir

The chemist is at present absent on leave but on his return & on the arrival of your second bore, he shall go to work upon its contents and upon the sample enclosed in your letter & you shall have the result without delay.

If your angillaceous Iron stone should possess the œconomical qualities of our Welsh Mine it will be a valuable discovery.

I remain Sir y^r faithfully

Geo. T. Clark
