With best thanks, dear Mr Maiden, I beg to acknowledge the receipt of the twelve guineas
draft,
which has at once been forwarded to Mr Ch. Walter, whose signature has been received
to the two vouchers, herewith returned. It was very pleasing to me, to receive the
letter of acknowledgement from the trustees,
for which I beg to render my grateful acknowledgement.

Let me advise you, to reserve of all kinds of woods, which you may get shaped for

piece to be formed in book-pattern, as you will find that such is a
handy
form to examine wood samples with readiness.
