29 Keppel Street - CB wants his family to enjoy a little sea air while he works on WW's magnetic observatory. Since he has borne the costs for the apparatus so far on behalf of WW, he is finding it 'somewhat burdensome to my limited means'. Since CB's promised renumeration will shortly be before the Government, could WW inform Prince Albert [as Chancellor] of his views respecting the importance of automatic registration in understanding the 'relations of terrestrial magnetism, and requesting him to use his influence in my behalf'.
