TO W. H. HARRISON
Folkestone, Saturday [April 18, 1849].
Dear Mr. Harrison,—I now return you the whole of the sheets—carefully compared in every part: but there are one or two matters which will I am sorry to say cause you more trouble than I had the slightest intention—elastic as my conscience is—of inflicting upon you. I shall not again so miscalculate my powers of revision as to leave all—at the last—upon my kind friend's shoulders, as I have done now, though after so often feeling the advantage of your assistance in the detection of errors, I feel I shall hardly be able to trust anything to the press that has not passed through your hands.
To begin at the beginning, I have added a footnote to the Preface and titles for list of Plates. You will find the places of the Plates which I could not fix marked on the slips.
2ndly, I enclose a proof of a new page, 51, of which I tried to cancel the first copy. Would you kindly compare p. 52 with the last revise thereof and make it correspond. I have looked over the new p. 51; it is all right.
