Scope and content

Writes to express her sympathy, 'as an old Newnham student', with Nora on the death of Henry Sidgwick, and to let her know how she and others feel 'this great loss'. Claims that most of what has been the best in their lives has come from their having been at Newnham. Says that they owe so much to Henry, and that 'the memory of his personal character will always give a standard and makes human nature appear as so much higher and nobler [a] thing'.
