70 Monument Lane, Edgbaston, Birm[ingha]m [paper embossed with dragon's head crest and the motto Ut Tibi Sic Alteri]. - Thanks for courteous reply; anticipated resistance, but believes Byron should lie in Hucknall Church with some tokens of veneration for his poetic genius; did not wish to place Houghton in a difficult position by asking him to support letter to the Times on the subject.
