implements are beginning to attract the attention they deserve.  I have seen one here, which I am to take to London processed in a cave in connection with the bones of the Pygmy Elephant recently discovered.  An Elephant about the size of the Indian Ox. I am going to dig in the principal cave tomorrow.  Did I mention that some most interesting excavation had been lately made at Keiss.  I will send you out an account of the same.  We have the bones & implements of men there who were in the [indecipherable] Slate Mine ]?].  The Aborigines of New Holland now [indecipherable].

I have just returned from seeing Arthur Onslow off.  God grant that he may come to you in good health & find you all at Camden so too.  I am looking forward with some anxiety for the intelligence of the arrival of your Brother here [indecipherable] & Elizabeth.  Give our kind love to them all & we both send to you I am

[indecipherable] yr. most sincere friend
