Scope and content

Typewritten copy. Bryce will have heard that 'in the present state of the unhappy business' the dinner has had to be put off. Invites him to come to them on Saturday 29 May 'for the Sunday'. Adds that '[F. W.] Cornish of Eton' will be with them lecturing on education. They were glad Bryce made such a good speech: if he should become converted he will attribute it to Bryce's arguments. Remarks that part of it reminded him of 'Sydney Smith's analysis of charity'.
