[Letter] 1868 May 14, Parsonage Road, Withington, [Manchester to ] Hendricks

               Parsonage Road
                 Wittington
                  14 May 68.
Dear Hendricks
        I return you 
enclosed the specimen 
sovereign which was 
examined with inter
est by the members 
of our Society last night.
   We had not however 
very many present 
possibly because it is 
rather late to get meetings 
together here.
   I also send back the 
papers. The MS one 
strikes me as particularly 
clear & convincing & it is 
to be hoped you will 
have it printed in 
some way or other.
   It seems that a 1 per cent 
change would keep the 
value of the sover. almost
precisely where it is now 
for the Bank Commission 
is at present. 166 p. c. 
and if .834 per cent be 
added to this it almost 
exactly balances the .825 
subtracted in the form 
of gold.
   I send you by post 
also three copies of 
the Manchester 
Guardian which contains
the best report of 
my paper.
   I shall look with 
great interest for the 
report of the Commission.
    Yours faithfully
             W. S. Jevons
