Mentions that he has heard that Sidgwick takes in interest 'in the question of Charity Organisation', and therefore sends him some literature on their system in the hope that Sidgwick might establish a charity organisation at Cambridge, 'for which the present Mendicity Society at Cambridge might possibly serve as a starting point.' Suggests that a possible advantage of such a venture would be that the students 'at College might by means of it be practically educated in some of the most important social problems of the day.'
