The Archaeological Meeting
This year it is to be at Norwich & not at Hereford - The [final] sermon for me, thinking of Hereford for our Fenchurch meeting was your idea of visiting the Wye, & now we find that the Bishop will be glad to receive us. The installation will be I believe on the 6th or 7th of [July]? at or possibly 5th or 8th. After that it we shall go on to Fenchurch [?] but until we know the day of the installation we can not fix the exact day. I must be back at Ashby on Monday the 19th of July, on account of the Agricultural Meeting which takes place at Northampton in that week & some of my [?] will possibly come to me on Tuesday, & possibly even on Monday- you remember you arranged to come to me I am WORD hoping that I can [?] ask Mrs Buckland at that time as my time will be full, but I hope she will when with you [?] [?] to see my Museum in its original state. The Norwich Meeting is to [?] on the 29th July. The dates then will be thus [V & Mat]? 5 to 8th July, Hereford, Fenchurch between 9th & 17th July Agriculture between 19th & 24th July. Norwich between 29th July & 5th Aug.
Yours most truly

I have today received a letter from the Dean of Ely - He proposed times for our excursion sent to him
I fear Dr. Buckland will think that I have forgotten to send the fish but I have been far from well or should have sent it sooner. The Ammonite with its parasites and the wood ditto. I hope Dr. B will accept as a small token of my sense of Dr. B's kind present of the pictures I have already sold saving the [?] of shells are also parasites having entirely displaced the ammonite which always the case with this species of ammonite I fear there is nothing new in the coprolites - trusting that Mrs Buckland and the dear children are quite well.
I remain respectfully your gratefully and obliged humble Servt.
