Letter concerning Lord Bathurst and [Robert] Wilmot enrolling as members of the Asiatic Society.

The letter is undated and unsigned, but both Lord Bathurst (1762-1834) and Robert John Wilmot (1784-1841) joined the Society in 1823 so the letter could be dated to the same year. With accompanying typed note describing the content.
