From the Rector, Exeter College, Oxford - Is glad [Sidney?] Owen was moved, though he didn't apply material pressure; is very busy and this is one of a hundred letters, when he would usually like 'a whole day's respite ere committing my most intimate feelings to paper. Don't tell J.G. this if it is likely to make him jealous'.

La Haule Manor, Jersey - Has just arrived at his house on Jersey, has been digging at his prehistoric cave; thinks Sidney Owen is apt to fuss over trifles, not that he is lazy, will 'give him a poke' when he sees him again; wishes Oxford had taken Hutton as well, it was not his decision.

as from Trinity College, Cambridge (Dictated) - Thanks him for the copy of 'Greece and Rome; a selection from the works of Sir James G. Frazer'; has had considerable portions read to him; admires the taste in the selection of passages; approves of the introduction which points out that 'while my studies have wandered over a great part of the world my heart still remains true to Greece and Rome'.
