Collingwood - JH has been reading about WW's speech in Lancaster [to his old school] in the Cambridge Chronicle. Julius Hare was at JH's yesterday 'speaking of you and the cause of honour and utility now before you' [appointed vice-chancellor of Cambridge University]: For 'the good of the university and the country', JH and JH hope that WW's appointment 'may be a long one'.
