Letter from Henry Thomas Colebrooke to Nathaniel Wallich in which he gives advice on when to send plants as the current specimens were all dead when he retrieved them from the Custom House. He writes of jealousy among the Directors of India House if plants arrive for private persons and so therefore asks Wallich to send specimens to them but to continue to send him seeds. He adds thanks for geological specimens and for Wallich to forward letters of acknowledgement to General Hardwick and Dr Adams. He asks whether the other gentlemen might be interested in joining the Geological Society. Handwritten, dated 20 January 1820, received 9 July 1820.

Letter from Henry Thomas Colebrooke to Nathaniel Wallich acknowledging letters sent and stating that he has sorted Wallich's remittances and arranged for the periodicals he requests to be sent to him. He was pleased with the geological specimens sent to him, including gold from Tartary and specimens from Lieutenant Gerard and Mr Scott and Colebrooke has used the notes sent by Gerard to write a paper on the geology of the valley of the Sutlej. He has proposed Lt Gerard and Dr Jack as members of the Geological Society. He thanks Wallich for seeds sent but advises because of the cost to be careful in thinking through which to send. Handwritten, dated 9 January 1821, received 5 June 1821.

Letter from Henry Thomas Colebrooke to Nathaniel Wallich in which he congratulates Wallich for his success in research in Nepal. Colebrooke discusses publications to send to Wallich.

Letter from Henry Thomas Colebrooke to Nathaniel Wallich in which Colebrooke discusses the periodicals that are being sent and how much the remittance will cover. He writes that he has just learnt, with regret of the death of Dr Jack. Handwritten, dated 8 January 1823, received 17 June, 1823.

Letter from Henry Thomas Colebrooke to Nathaniel Wallich to ask Wallich whether he would like the earlier volumes of the Geological Transactions to complete his set as they are available at modest terms. Colebrooke and Mr Lambert have had an interview to request an assistant for Wallich but, as yet, do not know the outcome. The specimens that Wallich sent are still undistributed and therefore Colebrooke suggests that Wallich apportions them to men of science in future. In a postscript Colebrooke mentions that Richardson is still sending publications to Wallich. Handwritten, dated 30 March 1824, received 29 September 1824.
