Item 101 - Letter from Henry Holland

2 Brook Street - Thanks WW for a copy of his work on English University education: 'The whole argument is strong, or I would say convincing - greatly needed, moreover, at this particular time, where we are surrounded by such novelties in speculation'. For instance HH's 'old acquaintance Hamilton [William Hamilton] (the Ed. Review) who even as a boy of 18 was besotted by the same spirit of vague and verbose speculations, which still governs his understanding'. HH's and WW's mutual friend Hallam [Henry Hallam] has lost his eldest daughter.
