Letter from Mary Cornwallis Herschel, Coonoor, to [John Herschel] Mary gives dates for her recent letters to John, and their enclosures. She is not well, had a little drive yesterday, but is feverish today. She gives thanks for John's two letters and forwards a letter of Bob's [her brother] for John's opinion. She originally explained the case to him when 'ERP' [Edward Power] wrote his first letter. She asks for the return of the item once John has read it. 29 February 1872
