Abstract
A letter to Benjamin Silliman in which Edward Hitchcock discusses Silliman's textbook on chemistry at length. He writes that he does not have the time before dark to read over proofs and that he trusts Silliman's judgment on corrections, but that he will not be able to begin using the text at Amherst until the following year because the local shops have already purchased the textbook by John White Webster. Hitchcock also briefly mentions some plant drawings by Orra White Hitchcock, stating that he is not sure he wants to bother having engravings of them done.
