My dear Sir

The Bearer Mr Dunn2 is going to Mexico before long where we hope to derive benefit from his Chemical Knowledge.

He is very desirous of seeing all he can before he leaves England & if you could allow him to attend tomorrow evening to witness the experiments on Carbonic Acid it would very much oblige3[.]

Dear Sir | Yours very Truly | John Taylor
