Oxford, Nov. 8, 1840. On my return home a few days ago I found your valuable present of the report on education, for which pray accept my best thanks.

I hope soon to send you my report in (a French periodical) in which I have given the best abstract I could of your experiments... 12mo, integral leaf detached, lightly stained. (Inventory #: 3755)
