Sir,
We are very anxious to complete the series of Portraits of Fellows of the Royal Society that we commenced last year, as we are so frequently applied to for a completion of the collection.1
Any appointment you may favor us with for the purpose will receive our best attention, and at the same time, we shall be glad if you will inspect those portraits already taken.2
Waiting the favor of a reply, we remain, Sir, Yours Respectfully
Mc.Lean & Haes
