| Description | Requesting permission to make copies of plates from Sir Humphry Davy's paper on Herculaneum in the 'Philosophical Transactions'. Edwards needs these for a work on ancient and modern libraries, a prospectus of which he encloses.
The third page contains a note, dated 19 January 1857, from a Fellow [?] vouching for Edwards' request.
