Dear Talbot

I shall be glad to read any statement of Mr Snow Harris’s about his discovery, (I have read one already) if he thinks it worth while to send it me, and do not let him suppose my opinion can have ought to have any weight on a subject on which I am so ignorant, with the board of Admiralty, who I happen to know have repeatedly had his plans under their consideration. & collected the opinions of professional & scientific men respecting them.

Yrs truly

Lansdowne
