| Description | Thanks Galton for his cheque and explains that this gift will ease his financial troubles. Hopes that Galton will understand that his reasons for communicating with him were for honourable motives, and merely to obtain what he sees as a moral right. Sends his best wishes to Galton and to Isabella Galton. This letter has been stored with a copy of a letter sent to J. H. Pickering by Isabella Galton, dated 5 Nov 1844, in which she explains why she is unable to offer him financial assistance at that time. |
