Unidad documental simple 75 - Letter from Henry Sidgwick to William Sidgwick

Announces that he is going over to stay with [A. G. Vernon] Harcourt from the Tuesday to Thursday following. Wishes to talk to Natural Science men, regarding a notion he is bringing forward in a Trinity college meeting [regarding the need to appoint a Praelector for the direction of new studies in the college, especially Physical Science]. Also wishes to speak with Professor [J. M.] Wilson about philosophy text-books, since they are changing their list [of recommended books] in Cambridge.

Has decided to stay in England and give up his expedition to Paris. Asks where William shall be during the vacation. Informs him that if he comes to Cambridge from the following Thursday to Sunday he 'will probably find plenty of men.' States that their general meeting is on Friday and Londoners come up for it; there will of course be a 'shoppiness in the air'. Tells William that if he could let him know before he [Henry] goes to Oxford what he intends to do, he 'might get a man to dine who says he wants to know [William] - G[ ] of Christ's.'
