Scope and content
States that Myers' news was 'very cheering', but that he had hoped for some more that morning. Reports that the P[ettys: mediums at Newcastle] 'have not come up to the mark'. Remarks that the 'new complication about the girls makes the prospects of [their] visit in the winter more interesting.' Asks about a [fraudulent] séance, which was attended by Myers and Rankin and others. Announces that his attic will be ready 'on the 27th', and that he shall be in Cambridge that Sunday. States that they 'will entertain a select party of friends.' Adds that if Myers should dislike the attic, suggests that B[ ] might be willing to make some sort of arrangement with him about his rooms. Sends his regards to the [Bernard?] Hollands.
