Reference number: RR/8/184
Date: 30 July 1879

Description
Apologises that editing the paper for printing has taken longer than expected. Disagrees with the suggestion to omit figure three. Has reduced in scale some of the other figures. Asks if the President could allow him to substitute a new figure for one already in the paper.
