Extract

Having been for these several days too much pressed for time to return you an answer to your obliging favour on the Roman sword in my possesion, I beg you will permit business to apologize for the delay.

I have enclosed to you a letter from Mr. Mutlow of the College Precincts, Gloucester, in answer to some queries which I directed to him on the subject of the relic in question; but as I have since received further information on the discovery of Roman remains dug out of the spot from whence the sword was taken, I here subjoin a few remarks and a concise account of them.
