'If to the above could be added a translation of "A Scottish House" I think I could make an interesting article on the work.' He offers to 'give the use of any of our cuts with much pleasure'. He concludes: 'A description of our printing establishment would afford Mr W<?> a good topic, and in alluding to some of the publications, some illustrative cuts could be brought in,'
