Dear Henry
I have been looking over Johns <1> books & send you a list of what there is in case you should be inclined to adopt my plan. The list on the preceding page is what are already there, those on the next are what I shall add to them as useful for him or for you if you take a journey that way & if not they may all come home together by sea. In the meantime the trunk remains at the Manse of Ld. Bangherch with my name upon it.
