Dear Sir
The enclosed letter was written some days ago, and was accidentally put away with yours of the 10th instead of being posted.
If you approve of what we propose to do I will remove the Boxes from the Clearing Agent's hands as soon as I receive your authority to do so. We have two find lambs of Ovis Vignei born from the sheep sent home by Gen[eral] Heaisey
I intend to [?] a drawing of them in the "Zoological Sketches" of which I enclose a Prospectus. I shall be delighted to add your name to my list. I shall be delighted to have it.
I am dear Sir
Yours very faithfully
D.W. Mitchell
