5 New Ormond St., Queen Square. - Became a Surveyor of Stamps and Taxes at Somerset House through Milnes' influence but finds responsibility too great; Mr [John?] Thornton has written to Sir Thomas Fremantle to ask him to exchange appointment for a clerkship; Sir Thomas is waiting to see what Milnes thinks. Contains copy letter from Malkin to Sir Thomas Fremantle, 1 Mar. 1843: furnishes evidence of handwriting and education; has heard from his father that Milnes is to return to London in a few weeks; sure he will approve exchange of appointment; speech impediment derives from nervousness but would decrease when accustomed to business.
