October 6. 1859

Dear Sir

On the occasion of my preparing a chronology of Photography for the Photo: News almanack last year you were kind enough to say that on another occasion you could assist me in the compilation of a much more complete and accurate table than was then given.

I am now engaged upon the Photographic news Almanack for 1860 and as it is to be a larger and more complete almanack than the one last year, I am anxious to make the chronological table correspondingly enlarged. May I therefore ask for the assistance so kindly offered.

I can give almost as much space to it as you wish and am in no particular hurry for time at present as I do not think we shall publish before November.

I enclose the table which was given last year in case you may require to see what was then given

Believe me truly yours

William Crookes.

H. F. Talbot Esqre
