trower to ricardo1
[Answered by 48]

33. Harley Street.— Mar. 2. 1814—

Dear Ricardo—

As I am unwilling to deprive Mr. Mill of the pleasure of seeing your very interesting papers on the profits of Capital2 I return them to you with many thanks; and shall really be glad to see them again when you can spare them—as I should like to pursue some reflections they have suggested.—In the meantime I send you some Notes I have made in considering your view of the subject; but I beg to assure you, that I submit them with great diffidence, and more with the desire of ascertaining whether I rightly understand you, than with the expectation, that they will be found correct.3 Should I be in error I shall be much obliged to you to point out where it is; as it frequently happens, that the detection of a single error will lead to the discovery of a mass of misconception—

Yrs ever very truly—

Hutches Trower.

I need not say that the Notes I send you are quite in the rough as that circumstance will be sufficiently evident to you—Have you Malthus’s reply to you.4

[1 ]Addressed: ‘To / David Ricardo Esqr / Upper Brook Street / Grosvenor Sqre—’. Not passed through the Post.

MS in R.P.

[2 ]Probably an early draft of the Essay on Profits, published in 1815.

[3 ]Trower’s Notes are wanting.

[4 ]Malthus’s reply is wanting.
