Letter from Captain Thomas John Newbold to Richard Clarke, Secretary of the Royal Asiatic Society, enquiring as to the fate of various papers which he had sent to the Society during the previous year. He offers to send copies of the work on names of the planets with which the Brahmins are conversant stating that he believes Mr Whish's text is accurate. He asks that if his papers on Syria and Asia are not to be printed then could they pleased be returned to him. He also writes that he has abundant more Syrian material. Newbold's list of papers has been annotated in pencil according to whether they had been read, published or neither.
