George Combe letter to Henry Colman, 1846 Nov. 10.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/52577907

Combe writes to Colman, 10 Nov. 1846, asking him on behalf of the Archbishop of Dublin [Richard Whately] to inscribe a verse in honor of Martin Luther in the visitors book at the temple Valhalla near Ratisbone, Germany, should Colman happen to visit there. The verse is written on the verso of the sheet, in both Latin and English, and asks why Luther is not among those honored at the temple.
