Salford, Manchester - Although EH cannot attend the BAAS meeting at Liverpool due to illness, he would like to introduce WW to William Fairbairn - 'the engineer to whose liberal views I am so much indebted - and whose manufactory, while it is supplying models to the scientific man, and machines to all parts of Europe, is - to say nothing of his place in London - one of the lions of this neighbourhood'. EH was sorry not to see the subject of impact in WW's History of the Inductive Sciences.

Thanks him for note on Yarns by a Manchester Spinner; many are badly spun.
