I am directed by the Council of this Society to return your Lordship their grateful thanks for the letter of introduction in China which you have been so kind as to give them on behalf of her Robert Fortune. The favourable disposition of the many gentlemen to whom he will be introduced, together with his skill and industry, will render his mission productive of advantage to the public in general as well as to this Society.
I have the honour to be
My Lord
Your very obedient Servant
