Unidad documental simple 6 - Letter from John Herschel

3 pp

Could WW take the enclosed letters to Laplace and Edwards. Biot will introduce WW to Cuvier. If he sees Arago to ask him whether he received a letter from JH announcing his election to the Astronomical Society, and if he sees Picollet whether he got Babbage's letter on his machine. If JH's theodolite by Schenck has arrived at Bouvard's could WW take it back to England with him. The two blue pamphlets are for Cauchoix and Fortiu [the optician]. The printed letters about Babbage's machine are at his request to be given to Prony and Cauchy and any others WW may think interested.
