From William Buckland   8 August 1833

Oxford

8 August 1833

Dear Henslow

I return to you this copy of the Sheets w. h Daubeny sent to me yesterday having corrected my own— chiefly that at Page 104 where my Quotation was not correctly given— I also return you your Tooth or Tusk from Buenos Ayres for I hardly know what name to call it whether it be incisor or one of the Rodontia or a Tusk of some small Animal among the Pachydermata— Pentland is of opinion that it is an Incisor be it what it may I have mended it for you & return it honestly, & wish the other thin Molars which were fallen into many Pieces were also set to rights— I suppose you are almost left alone at Cambridge— I am still here but meaning to run to the sea in Hants or the I of Wight the Beginning of Sept— I see Lord Althorpe has put off the English Church Bill till the next Meeting of Parlt in the Mean time shd Potton fall you will oblige me by the most early intelligence & still more oblige M rs Buckland who is much more anxious than I am to get away from Oxford from the damp Air of which she suffers so much— Pray present my best regards to M rs Henslow

& believe me | very sincerely yours | W m Buckland
