2 Brook Street - Thanks WW for a copy of his Bridgewater Treatise [Astronomy and General Physics Considered with Reference to Natural Theology, 1833]: 'Even praise is sometimes presumptuous in him who gives it; and yet you will, I hope, allow me to say something of the admiration I felt throughout for the spirit, earnestness, sound reasoning and beautiful illustrations which you have given to this subject'. HH gives his corrections, criticisms and suggestions on how to improve the text.
