My Dear Sir
I deeply regret that your paper came to hand too late as we must issue the notices for press by the 15th of course it will be read next month<.>
We are going to publish the Synchronous History, & the Astronomical Tablets but the cost will be very great for we have not yet 200 members<.>
Shall I send you an extra cop iey of part II ?
Yrs truly
