Title
Letter from Isambard Kingdom Brunel to J. Morris
Description
Written from 18 Duke Street, Westminster, London. The letter explains that Freelands are not overly keen on selling their hydraulic press and complains, although he acknowledges that he has no right to complain, that Freelands will not let Brunel prove their presses which gives Brunel considerable risk of buying something not fit for purpose. Brunel looks forward to the return of his assistant with information about the available presses that he has located.
