Unidad documental simple 14 - Letter from Henry Sidgwick to his mother

Refers to Dr Andrew Clark, and his failure to adequately treat Mary's complaint; hopes soon to have a better account of the matter. Cannot persuade Nora to give an exact date for their wedding: her eldest brother [Arthur Balfour], who will have to entertain their friends, is expected home in a few days, and she wishes to wait for him to come home before making a final decision. The wedding will definitely be in the week before Passion Week, and most probably on the Tuesday of that week; hopes that this will suit his mother. Suggests that it would probably most comfortable for her to accept 'Lucy's invitation' [to stay with her]. Encloses a list of the presents that they have already received [not included]. Claims that he cannot think 'of anything that remains ungiven except breakfast, dinner and dessert services, spoons, knives and forks etc.', but presumes that she will think of other things.
