Item 55 - Letter from Arthur H.W. Heland to Nora Sidgwick

1 doc

States how 'intensely interesting' he found Henry Sidgwick: A Memoir to be. Is one of those who owes a great deal to Henry's courage in resigning his Fellowship; had not fully realised, until he read about it, 'the great significance of what he did for those who came later.' Remarks that it is 'wonderful to read how after giving up his Fellowship he needed to do something positive and that something was the better education of women.' Will often look at the book, and be thankful for Henry's example and work.
