Oxford
26 August 1854.
Sir
the monument to the memory of Major Gaisfords Lady having been so long at my workshop and out of the packing case such as it is getting discoloured etc I am anxious to get it fixed. If you have decided on the design for the other monument I saw at the Abbey I should be glad to get it in hand so that both might be fixed at the same time
I am Sir Your most obedient Servant
