Letter from James R. Ballantyne to Brian Houghton Hodgson. Ballantyne writes that he is laid on his back with leeches on his side for a touch of pleurisy, so is using an amanuensis to ask Hodgson to glance over a mixed list of words and notes which are peculiar to the middle or upper climate division of the Himalaya. He has written a synopsis so Hodgson can see how his Himalayan discoveries fit in. This synopsis will be expanded to a complete set of educational treatises with the aid of Hodgson's College of Translators. Handwritten, 2 sides, dated 30th August 1851.
