  <dc:title>Copy letter, from Sir John Herschel to Alexander Wilson, dated at Collingwood</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Copy of a letter. Critiques John Taylor's essay [see Alexander Wilson's 1844-9-26]. Views Alexander Wilson's position on currency measures as too vehement; urges caution. John Frederick William Herschel conceived similar plan years before. Gives reasons for disowning it. Protests John Frederick William Herschel's being painted as perpetrator of injustice simply because John Frederick William Herschel rejected Alexander Wilson's arguments.</dc:description>
