2 Orchard St., Portman Sq. - WW's paper on Crystallography was read at the Royal Society and an abstract will be distributed at the next meeting ['A General Method of Calculating the Angles Made by Any Planes of Crystals, and the Laws According to which They are Formed', Phil. Trans., 1825]. JH did not hear whether WW had made any reference to Levy's paper in Brewster's journal. Because of the similarity with his paper, WW should refer to it in his abstract.

Just received £140 for the Anaesthetic Emergency Fund, making a total of £700.

Has drafted a response requesting further funds but clarifying no urgency in sending them.
Ashby de la Launde, near Sleaford. - Has 'sent off the tribute [a portion of his shooting bag] in accordance with our Original Protocol'. Next year it will be shot from the Ashby Coverts, as he has ordered 'the utter extirpation of the acclimatised bird of Phasis from the Martin Wood, the Raids you alluded to [by poachers?]... being too vexatiously & the system of decoy too glaring to be endured' either by King or by his keeper, who has worked for him for 34 years. 'Timberland & Fryston consequently I guess by my edict will suffer'.
Thanks her for sending back the letters from Henry Sidgwick. Undertakes to see if he can find any more from him, but doesn't think there are many, if any. Hopes that his uncle Arthur Sidgwick will cut back on some of his other work, of which he believes he does 'far too much', in order to devote himself to the writing of the memoir. Declares that '[t]he great desideration is that the writer should want to [write] more than anything else in the world - and everything is quickly and well done when that is behind.' Advises Nora to ask Maggie if she can find any letters, and states that there are a good many papers at [ ]. Undertakes to look there when he goes back there in August.
Sans titreThe dates are those of the original letters. It is unclear when the transcripts were made.
