1 doc

Refers to a letter sent to him [Bowen] by a correspondent [Willmot], and regrets that he cannot send it on to Sidgwick. Bowen alludes to some of the contents of the letter; [Willmot] denies having broken his promise and states that a very few men 'do know about the society, without his telling them, and blame us with some show of justice for [ ] keeping the secret to ourselves.' Bowen is indignant at the fact that the writer broke his promise and 'behaved badly to us.' The writer advises that 'the day of meeting' should be changed. Asks Sidgwick to write and tell him how he gets on 'in all respects'. Asks whether he is writing himself [ ] for Macmillan, and asks when he intends to come and see him [Bowen]. Asks after Tawney. States that he is just back from his tour in France, which was very short 'but very pleasant'. States his intention of writing for the B[ ] again.
