Item 34 - Letter from Henry Sidgwick to his mother

1 doc

Thanks her for the enclosure, and reports that he has written off immediately to his uncle. Fears that he will not be able to visit her, due to his worsening hayfever. Intends to go via London to Ostend, and then to proceed to Göttingen for about six weeks, after which he may go further east, 'then perhaps south.' Hopes to study some more Arabic while he is away. Hopes that his mother is enjoying the fine weather. Reports that in London he discovered some Marsala with soda water at one shilling per bottle, and undertakes to send her six bottles. Asks her to write to him at Ostend or Gottingen. Sends greetings to Miss Hedley.
