Dear Miss Buckland

Sir Roderick was so good as to send me a copy of his address to the Geogr. Soc. which having read with avidity as being a very able & satisfactory paper, and having much liked the brief but telling notice of your dear father I tried to procure from the
printer a copy to send to you - and your good mother and sisters - but having failed I was about to send you my copy by this post, - my young ladies however interfered -and assure me that there is no possible doubt of Sir Rodks having already despatched one of his earliest copies to St. Leonards Is that the case or not? - If not, you shall by return of post have that belonging to Yours faithfully
