Transcript
Observatory Armagh
4th Septr 1876
My dear Thomson,
I have just got your telegram. I was nearly on a balance and your telegram makes the go side preponderate; at least unless some unforeseen hitch arises. So I will say expect me unless you get a telegram to the Contrary. I hope you have not kept for me anything but the smallest room at your disposal as I come alone.
I intend to go by the later Mail boat and stick to it (i.e. not go by rail from Greenock) so as not to get in inconveniently early.
Yours sincerely
G. G. Stokes
