Sat^y 5 Jan^y

D^r Sir

As I do not go out at night in this weather I cannot be present personally at the meeting of the Ph. Soc^y next Tuesday but I will send two volumes of specimens of engraving, and several loose specimens to hand about. I will send the parcel addressed to you at the rooms of the Ph. Soc^y on Tuesday morning if that will do.

Believe me Yours very Truly
H. F. Talbot
