One letter with attached note to Susannah Milner-Gibson from Ann, Lady Cullum. [Mar. 1841?]
Reports that Reginald Marsden of Merton '[ ] of the Oxford Eight' is a medium, 'and very much interested in Spiritualism.' Informs Sidgwick that Marsden 'is intimate with the Milner Gibsons', and other spiritual people. Explains that he has asked the latter to put himself in communication with Sidgwick, as he believes that if the two join forces, they could 'work out something.' States that [ ] 'is very wild in the matter, but he knows interesting people'; suggests that Sidgwick look him up. Gives his address in Croydon, and mentions that he is in town most days. Thanks Sidgwick for writing to Chapman, and invites him to come and see them. Claims that he can, through Dr [Elliston], get Sidgwick an introduction to Dr Ashburner, and offers to introduce him to Mr [De Morgan].
