My dear Sir/
I am directed by the council to thank you for the specimens of Photo etching which you have been good enough to present to them.
The two specimens of Photography placed in our hands some time since have been lent out from time to time and are I believe still out exhibiting in the Country. I will see that they are returned to you as soon as they come in.
I am much obliged by the information as to premises I have forwarded it to the Photographic Association
I am my dear Sir yours faithfully
