Heathfield.
Octr 6. 1847.

Dear Sir,

I forgot to enclose the note to Mr Harding <1> in my letter.

I have just heard from Mr Bridges <2> who tells me that he has sent you an account of a process <3> of which he begged you to forward me a copy.

I shall be particularly obliged if you will send it to me as soon as convenient, as I am writing to Mr Bridges, and wish to acknowledge the receipt of it

yours very truly
Calvert R Jones.

H. F. Talbot Esqr
