7 Camden Street and Town - Asks him to write a notice of [Henry] Coddington to include in the Annual Report of the Astronomical Society. He is aiming for fuller biographies and worries 'that unless we can get all our Fellows to interest themselves, we stand a good chance of losing our existence. Every person who can be quoted as having done any work for us is strength just now, when Baily's [Francis Baily] loss has thrown us upon ourselves'.
Collingwood - Thanks WW for his Plato Vol. 3 [WW's trans. of Plato's Republic, 1861]. JH gives his reply to WW's observations on the beginning of JH's translation of the first book of Homer's 'Iliad' [see JH to WW, 12 Dec. 1861].
2 Brook Street - HH has received another of WW's proof sheets [The Philosophy of the Inductive Sciences, Founded upon their History, 2 vols., 1840]: 'I still think there is a little too much of foreign cast given to the subject [Physiology]'. He agrees with WW that Muller's [Johann Muller] physiology is the best work, but in drawing exclusively from foreign writers WW will 'weaken the repute and claims of the English physiological school, especially with those who are fresh to the subject'.
56 Green Street - thanks him for his present
Two letters.
