not then got his money from Gale. He is however going to summon him for the amount he owes him. The printer says he wishes he could sell the paintings. They would not be of any use to me, and even if they were, I have not money to spare in that line. I hope you will write on receipt of this, and let me know how you are getting on.

      To J. MacSweeny Esq. M.D., Bradford, July 2, 1850.

      I am obliged to you for the account of the inquest on the man killed by the grapnel. The London papers yesterday, I am sorry to find, have an account of another balloon disaster. Before this reaches you you will have seen the particulars of the accident. Gale, when in Leeds, told me that the Nassau balloon was quite rotten and that he should not be surprised to hear of Green being killed by making use of that machine. It however appears to me from the accounts given of the accident in the London papers, that the valve must have been damaged – very likely that when opened it would not close. I did not see The Dispatch of the 2nd of June, but since your letter arrived I have tried to procure it. I am afraid I shall have some difficulty in doing so. Neither have I yet got the Patent Journal, though I expect to do so tomorrow.

      The Mr Rush, who ascended with Green on the 22nd ult, and also on Saturday last, I am not aware of his being an American, but he is the same gentleman who ascended with Green, September 10, 1838. He lives at Elsenham Hall, in Essex. He has not made 15 ascents with Green. I believe that in all his ascents he has risen to very great altitudes. According to The Illustrated London News of Saturday last, he and Green, on the 22nd ult, attained a height from Dudley on Tuesday last, and that he was to ascend from Birmingham yesterday.
