Miss Morland will please to observe that Mr. Sowerby has sent her but one specimen of Turbo labiatus because though he has more, the price is so high that he fears she might not like to go to the expense. The other species that Miss Morland desires Mr. S.
has not got at present. He can however obtain most of them at some future period. Mr. S has the pleasure of send to Miss M. two specimens of a new British [?] of which he begs her acceptance
