| Description | Is sorry to have missed seeing him yesterday evening, but naturally he escaped from this building after office hours when he has been chained up all day. Sending on two letters that have come for him. Also encloses a plate for his paper with a new proof for his final approval [no enclosures]. This has been waiting for news for him and shall be very glad to have it back as soon as possible, because the number of 'Proceedings [of the Royal Society]' containing the paper is waiting only for the plate. Must exchange news when they meet, which hopefully will be soon. |
