Item 14 - Letter from H. Montagu Butler to Nora Sidgwick

1 doc

Thanks her for sending him a copy of Henry Sidgwick: a Memoir. Remarks that nearly fifty years have passed since 'the extraordinary Rugby boy of 17 first came among [them], and refers to the many men and women whose lives and hearts he has powerfully influenced. The book will be his chief companion when the vacation begins, and they will take it away with them on holidays. States that it will 'bring together in an extraordinary way old friends who have of late seen but little of each other.'
