Part 51 - Letter from Henry Sidgwick to Mrs James Ward

Sends back the [F ] and the number of the Hampstead Annual [not included]. Of the former reports that he could only read it slowly on account of his rusty Italian, and remarks on the first volume in which there were chapters that relate to St Francis. Remarks on the naïveté of the earlier chapters. Remarks that he liked von Hügel's article, although does not think that he established a very clear relation between the life of St Catherine as he presents it and 'the [ ] of the dangers of onesidedness of mysticism which ends the article.' States that the saint's face is very attractive and is not sure that he should have discerned any mysticism in it. Believes that von Hügel has tried to pack too much philosophy of religion into his article.
