Dear Sir
On Saturday evening I am going to read a paper on the English races before a Science Club.
I made sure that I could obtain from the various museums here skulls to illustrate the paper, but have been much disappointed in not being able to obtain a long and a round-barrow skull.
Two years ago you were good enough to lend to my friend Dr Parker for the British Medical Association some skulls from your collection.
May I ask whether you will be good enough to lend me these two skulls - I would willingly pay all expenses and would send them back on Monday.
I am
Yours truly
J.H. Edgeworth
