[Sent from London]:- Says 'all is over [regarding the dismissal of Hayman, headmaster of Rugby School], and as well as could be expected'; it is 'vexatious that everything should be so uncertain about Arthur, but all things human are missed'. Reports that it is rumoured that 'H. H[ayman]' intends to resist, but that [Charles or Edward?] Bowen says that the latter 'will only lose his money', and has not 'a legal leg to stand on.' Refers to the Times of that day, which is 'as good as can be expected'. Does not feel as happy as he expected, but 'the relief is very great'.

Is sorry to hear about his mother's heath; admits to have been worried about the journey that she intends to make, and claims to be relieved that the idea has been given up. States that Easter is a much more suitable time to travel, and hopes that he himself shall be able to go with her. Announces that he goes to Lincoln on 29 December. Reports that an announcement of his book appears in the Athenaeum and in the Manchester Courier, and that he has received a note from J. H. Lace [his cousin], asking for a copy. Claims that she never answered his letter about his 'Association'.
