the entire preservation of all the Books and Papers,* con-
tained in the large Safe you recently supplied us with,
although exposed during Sunday last to a fire which de-
stroyed the larger part of our Works--this is the more re-
markable, as the intense heat has in many parts melted the
outside of the Safe.

"We are of opinion, that so successful a vindication of
the merits of your invention cannot, on public grounds, be
too generally known ; and we therefore leave you at liberty
to use this letter in any way you may wish.
