My dear Knights,
Will you have the goodness to pay the enclosed for me. I send a cheque in yr name for Collins, Daniel & Footman - and another for Mr Cowells' a/c. Be so good as to look at this a/c & see whether I ought to pay the first Item. I think it was rather on the Museum a/c - but if not I will pay it. You need not trouble yourself about the charge if my supposition is right as I can set this to rights when I come over on 4th Feb to Ld A. H.'s lecture. I think you have a trifle of charge already also - I forget which at the moment. I see the Bury paper says I lecture there on Feb. 4 - but I promised for March 4.
Very truly yrs
J. S. Henslow
P.S. If you see Leeman, tell him as he cannot well continue to put my Sisters birds into the case, she wishes all to be sent to the Museum till I come to Ipswich.
