If you called round, dear Mr Macdonald, on Sir William and Mr Joseph Clarke, they perhaps or some other rich men, like Dr Mein1 or Sir James McBain might make up the £100 on an understanding that a geogr feature be named after them.2 You could kindly ask them in my name, they are all near you,
Regardfully
