The Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain and Ireland was founded by the eminent Sanskrit scholar Sir Henry Thomas Colebrooke on the 15th March 1823. It received its Royal Charter from King George IV on the 11th August 1824 'for the investigation of subjects connected with and for the encouragement of science, literature and the arts in relation to Asia'. It continues as a forum for those who are interested in the languages, cultures and history of Asia to meet and exchange ideas.

Letter from Richard Clarke, Secretary, to Dr Jolowiez to thank for his letters of 24 April and 4 May and apologise for the delay in replying as the Council was 'not meeting' . His request for help in publishing some documents cannot be agreed to as the Society does not have the funds. However the work, 'Polyglot of Oriental Poetry', was laid before a meeting, stamped, but then returned to sender when it had been remarked that if it had to be returned it would not have been stamped. Jolowiez had also sent copies of his lectures, 'The first Epistle of the Baruch' and 'On the Correction of the text of the Hebrew Scriptures', the first had been read in 1854 at a meeting of Syro-Egyptian Society.
