| Title | Letter from Thomas Fry to Lord Mandeville, Athenaeum Club, London |
| Description | Old writer has divided up the age of man into three periods, "the first age of man is to take in-the second to let out & the third to pack up & be gone". Fry has suffered from influenza and a cough which has left him with a pain in his hand and arm, impacting his ability to write and hold a pen.
Cannot recieve the idea of Darius, King of Babylon, reigning between Nebuchadnezzar's and Belshazzar. No grounds to support such conjecture. If he did, it must have been through violence and he would not have relinquished it and it would be extraordinary is such event had passed by historians. Discusses further on the Babylonion dynasty.
