Dear Buckland

I shall be much obliged to you to cast your eyes over this catalogue and let me know whether my additions or alterations are in your opinion likely to improve it either in the form of a short preface or any thing that may strike you as tending to render it as complete as possible.

Yours very sincerely

Dear Sir

I shall not return till Friday the 19th as my Father and Mother are detained in Worcestershire and I thought it better to write to tell you of this alteration in my plans, as you were so good as to say you would ride to Abingdon to give me instructions about [?] drawing. The Fossil you can send when you please as they will take great care of any box directed to me and, if you can make it convenient to return to Oxford by Abingdon on Monday week I shall be very happy to see you. The Misses [?] asked me if it was possible that the gentleman who contradicted every word Dr Leach said at the Museum the other day could be Mr Buckland I have seen our new little friend once, and I hope to visit the Museum again. If I can be of any use to you in London, let me know - I lent your lecture to my old school mistress who is very much pleased with it. I wish you had time and inclination to write an elementary work on Geology you write so clearly and intelligibly that such a Publication would be most useful - I really believe that [to] many wise folks geologists are half Infidels and tho' your Lecture is well calculated to remove these prejudices, still a longer Treatise on the subject would be in my opinion (which however I offer with due humility) very [hole in paper] desirable
I durst write no more, as I may be told that my pen moves as fast as my Tongue and to as little purpose perhaps.

Believe me my dear Sir
Very truly yours

Your Royal Highness

I regret exceedingly that I was unable to be at the Museum to-day as I did not arrive at the office till past two. I was dissecting some fish and it was then too late for the chance of going to the Museum. Will you kindly fix your own day for next week and Mr Lee and myself will be in attendance. We will then send full particulars as to the place where the furs will be on view.
I trust your Royal Highness will forgive me for not meeting you to-day
