Pasted to the flyleaf is a letter dated 1847 of J. B. Thomson St Peter's Chambers, Cornhill, London, to John Fleming, Professor of Natural Philosophy at Aberdeen, informing him that a copy of the work has been sent to him and asking how it should be forwarded to him. Pasted inside the front cover is a fragment presumably of a wrapper addressed to Fleming, possibly in Sutherland's hand.
