Gratefully acknowledges the receipt of a letter from Sidgwick, 'with preface [for the Japanese translation of Methods of Ethics] and photograph [of Sidgwick]'. Reports that Professor Nakashima [the translator] is very pleased with Sidgwick's remarks. Gives his views on the Japanese middle class and aristocracy, and an account of recent political events in the country, including the appearance of the 'Constitutional' Party. Comments on the state of the economy, which, to English eyes, 'is contemptible'.
