Transcript
Right Rev. & dear Sir,
I enclose three lists — one of Lady [Rosse’s] books — another half sheet with the list of other books that are gone in the box with these, a [?] at Mr. Marriott’s — on the other side of this half sheet. I have put down such other books as I know you have had in case you may like to have some memorandum of them. They are I suppose at the Missionary House. I hope all will reach Liverpool before the 15th. The 3rd list is of the articles in the box. No. 1 for Rev. Chase & the base, No. 2 is the Chapel Communion plate — I hope the Society books will go today — I shall not add more in this as I write it for a memorandum to keep with the lists, and I am going to write direct to you at Manchester by this day’s end — as I send this to Mr. G[?] to track, which takes three days longer, I wish to send it off today. Always with the greatest respect & beyond I am Rev. Dear sir, truly and faithfully yours,
Duff Macfarlane
