Scope and content

Urges Myers to 'come up [to Cambridge]'. Reports that 'there is a great scheme of tutorial reform, one part of which comes on for voting.' States that he shall be up examining for minor schools. Has come to the conclusion that the 'I. P. of I. [Myers' poem The Implicit Promise of Immortality] is exceedingly good', but thinks that 'a p[oem] in classical style as an ancient Topic should not be published in a Shilling Mag.'
