D^r Sir

Mess^rs Soulier & Clouzard of Paris have liberally given me permission to engrave and publish some of their photographic views ¹ – I shall therefore put the matter in hand immediately, and make some steel engravings which I will send you. You can then select one of them for publication in your journal² – I shall be able to send you the full description of the process on the 20^th and perhaps sooner –

I remain Yours very truly
H. F. Talbot
