A teacher in London buys a number of Thomas Cooke telescopes

 Edmund Wheeler a lecturer (I don’t know in which subject) of London in 1857 purchased a number of telescopes from Thomas Cooke & Sons.

In February a 2.75 inch was brought, while in May a 4 inch engraved ‘Edmund Wheeler London’ and finally in September a 4 inch telescope on a plain equatorial stand with brass finder, 4 astronomical eyepieces and a sun prism.
