Dear Sir, 

Please to forward me the papers etc. enumerated in the enclosed 
list. At the same time you would greatly oblige me by the information 
whether there exists a short compendium of the Factory and Work- 
shops’ Acts? 

I possess myself the several Acts, but a member of the French 
Chamber of Deputies has asked me to procure him such a compen- 
dium where he might find the whole matter together. Has not been 

* of light 

something of the sort been published by Mr Redpath, Factory In- 
spector? * 

Yours truly,
