Is grateful for JH's kindness conveyed in his letter brought to him by Mohammed Ismail Khan. The latter has been attempting to persuade JL to go to Lucknow as an engineer, but has declined pending offer from the King of Oude. Will send his observations to Francis Beaufort after JH has left the Cape. Answers some of JH's queries.
