To George Knights 7 July 1854

Hitcham H.S.

7 July 1854

My dear Sir,

I have been absent since Tuesday among the archaeologists at Cambridge. Any hour will suit me on the 19th. Mr King has not yet (I believe) got the necessary symbols. I will write a letter about Museum Notices & give an account of Price's specimens as soon as ever the Hort. Show is off my hands. I send you a Programme & hope you stick to your intention of coming over - but I am sorry to say I can't offer a bed - for what with Grand-children, nurses, sick maids, &c. every bed in the house is occupied. I shall send a Programme to Mr Fitch who takes pleasure in these adventures & has sometimes come over - of course, I sd. be happy to see any companion you might like to bring.

Yrs very Truly

J. S. Henslow
