Your Royal Highness

Will you allow me to beg your acceptance of a copy of our Deep Sea Fishery report which we have just presented to Parliament through Mr. Cross. Please especially look to my History of Sea Fishes Appendix No.2 Page 178. You will also see that I have followed the [?] you once gave me at the Museum and have given at P 246 a table showing the fish in season during every month of the year. I am now getting ready for the Berlin Fishery Exhibition which is to be held in April 1880.

I remain Your Royal Highness

Your Royal Highness

I am indeed most obliged to you for a splendid haunch of Venison. I has subscribed to a 'goose club' for Christmas but now your Venison will take the goose's place. I thought of you yesterday at Leadenhall Market such a show of poultry the largest Turkey was 30 lbs an old Cock very tough I should think he brought seven guineas, There was also a wild Swan and one (Capercaelyie) but he was not fresh. You said you would like one, shall I send you one. Splendid birds but I expect all poached. Most of the geese I saw come from Iceland/Ireland. There was a lovely Snowly Owl 5£ and several Common Owls also a wild Swan. I finished my evening on Crab experiments. I want to stop them putting Crabs into cold water and boiling them alive.

Again thanking you
very much

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

I have been away again as usual Salmon inspecting. I am so very much obliged for the Venison. It was simply magnificent. I send you copy of my Fisheries report for 1875. Please read page 50 and examine the plans. May I be so bold as to ask Your Royal Highness if you think I might present a copy of my 'Log Book' to Her Majesty and if so what are the proper steps to approach Her Majesty. I should indeed be pleased if I might be allowed to forward a copy. Again thanking Your Royal Highness for the Venison.

Yours most obliged
