2pp., 12mo. On bifolium. Very good, on lightly-aged paper. Addressed to 'J. B. Burke' and signed 'H. Appleton' (a member of the Boston firm of publishers?). The letter reads: 'My dear Sir | I find that the 2d. part of your work "The visitation of Great Britain" has been published some time but I have not received mine. Will you…be good enough to put one under cover with my name & an outer cover to address of the Hon Abbott Laurence Boston [businessman and philanthropist], and send it to John Miller Esq. No: 24 Henrietta St. Covent Garden, and I shall be sure to get it.' Miller, who traded from a variety of different addresses during a long career (see BBTI, where his details appear to be included in two or more entries), apparently ending in bankruptcy in 1865, was known as 'the American bookseller in London'.
