Dear Sir,

I duly received your letter from 28th of May past informing me of the safe arrival of the views on glass which I sent to you. I was most delighted to learn that you found them satisfactory and that they are appropriate for your purposes. Their price will be the same as that of the proofs with which we had the honour of providing you in August 1860. In anticipation of being honoured with word from you accept Sir the assurance of my most sincere respects from your servant
Adre Ferrier

To Mr Talbot
at Lacock Abbey.
