My dear Buckland
I yesterday sent a little present to my God Son I hope it has come safe. I intended that you would have been the Carrier but it was not procured in time. I saw Hudson Gurney. he gives an excellent acct. of the lad [?] he ordered. Lonsdale is willing to take him on trial for the long vacation (three months) and then to give up the [Museum?] [?]. If all turns out well, he may then become a permanent officer I think this plan excellent. Lonsdale will work him well and I will soon phophesy again if the lad do not fully answer to their [?] and turn out an admirable workman. I have just written to Hudson Gurney for his preliminary consent. The boy is at his disposal and so is now in a great manner supported by him if I am not much mistaken, should no difficulties therefore arise we can at the next council discuss the matter. You can if you see good prefer an employment of the boy doing the [?] under Lonsdale will [?] it his permanent appointment as C [etc. etc.?]
My remembrances to Mrs B. and my love to your children
Yours always
