Dear Mr. Leeds.
I am glad to receive your Lectures in printed form, and trust
that they may be widely read throughout the community.
Having been in the habit for several years past, of consulting
with you professionally in regard to the arrangements to be made
for heating and ventilation in plans for public and private
buildings, I take this opportunity to acknowledge the value
of the aid thus given; and as I feel assured, from a lengthened
personal experience, that your thorough knowledge of the subject,
both theoretically and practically, is calculated to render your
assistance particularly valuable in the adjustment of complex
and intricate plans, I trust that one result of the circulation
of your interesting pamphlet may be to introduce you more widely
to members of the architectural profession.
I remain, Dear Mr. Leeds,
Yours faithfully,
