A.L.S. entirely dealing with the publication of his "Monograph of the Tubeless Cirripedia." 4 pp., 8vo. Down, 5th December (1850).

[To Edwin Lankester, Ray Society   5 December [1850]]

"... I shall be much obliged for the skeleton Plates, and the drawings (if you have them) to be returned to me, as soon as convenient to yourself.

"I shd be particularly obliged if you would inform me, at what period of 1851 my Part will appear. Pray do not suppose that I shall cause delay, but I want to know as I think it will be more convenient to me not to set to work at the 8 plates till I have got through to press the fossil Part, which the Palaontographic Soc. is going to publish" Etc.
