| Title | Letter, from Samuel Newington to Sir John Herschel, dated at 10 Upper George St. |
| Creator | Newington; Samuel (1739-1811); surgeon; apothecary; founder of Ticehurst House hospital. |
| Recipient | John Frederick William Herschel |
| Date | 5 January 1860 |
| Description | Autograph letter signed by sender. Is grateful for John Frederick William Herschel's opinion. Can hardly imagine that such a simple contrivance should answer the purpose. Saw the patent agent who has offered to send a list of all the writings on the subject. Also brought the matter before B. C. Brodie (the elder), who now seems totally blind. |
