    South Town Yarmouth. February 16th. 1817.

    Dear Sir,

    I am now finishing Etchings of the Prior's Entrance and Monks Entrance Ely Cathedral. And as they differ from those published in your work of Ely, perhaps they may not be unacceptable to you. In which case, should you be inclined to add them to that valuable work I shall feel gratified, and shall be happy to offer them to you at a very moderate price. The proofs are by no means in a state to forward to you, or they should have accompanied this letter.
    I am Dear Sir,
    Your very obedient and humble Servt.
    John S.Cotman.

    [To W. Stevenson]
