Scope and content
Declares that it is difficult to write, 'but impossible to say nothing.' Refers to what Alice has told them about Sidgwick's illness, and declares that the news has saddened them greatly. Wishes to tell him how much he loves him, and how earnestly he desires 'to pray that God may give [him] a happy issue here and hereafter.' Alludes to their different attitudes to religion. Hopes that Sidgwick may be given some more time, and expresses his wish of seeing him some more, and talking with him. Asks for his prayers.
