Salford, Manchester - Although EH cannot attend the BAAS meeting at Liverpool due to illness, he would like to introduce WW to William Fairbairn - 'the engineer to whose liberal views I am so much indebted - and whose manufactory, while it is supplying models to the scientific man, and machines to all parts of Europe, is - to say nothing of his place in London - one of the lions of this neighbourhood'. EH was sorry not to see the subject of impact in WW's History of the Inductive Sciences.
