8 Oct 1856

My dear Knights,

For my lecture on Friday will you be so good to send me (addressed to care of Rob Kersey Esqe Hadleigh) the following specimens from among those I deposited in the library -

  • (1) Specimens of crystallized Apatite (I have specimens of the compact)
  • (2) The flattened pieces of Iron & the spur.
  • (3) The tin cup in which the ground stone is raised.

I sd. like them to get to Hadleigh before I am there on Friday i.e. about midday. They can be sent by train.

Very truly yrs

J. S. Henslow
