Letter from Synge re journal's editorial policy

Latin line on the rose by [ ] Wodehouse

Will try to reserve ticket for Palgrave's wife if she cannot obtain one elsewhere; would like another copy of the large photograph; is not affronted by Reeve; pleased to see the relation of [? and Christ?] adhered to; Locker's book [Lyra Elegantiarum] scuppered by Forster's churlishness in claiming Landor copyright.

Re Mrs Woodruffe, née Cooper, of Pontefract.

17 Sherlock Road, Cambridge.—Thanks him for a copy of The Editorial Problem in Shakespeare.

Explains that he has been busy with Ecclesiastical Commission business, and the 'Camb[ridge] Mod[ern] Hist[ory]', and has only just found time to read Henry Sidgwick: A Memoir. Writes to tell Nora how much he likes and admires it, referring to its self-restraint and dignity, and to the way in which the letters 'are left to tell their own story, aided by the excellent pieces of biography or incidental explanation here and there.'

Is keen to present a play by Shaffer and hopes he will return [to the UK] soon.

States that he has just seen Henry Sidgwick's letter [101/99, re compulsory Greek] issued that morning. Admits regretting having put his name to the statement, referred to as 'number "Two" ', which, he claims he did 'in haste, without verification....' Declares that it is some time since he read [Welldon's] speech. In relation to 'Dr. Jackson's point', referred to as 'number "One" ', asserts that the question is one of interpretation. Emphasises that he speaks only for himself, having consulted no one.

Explains that she has hesitated to write to Nora sooner, lest a letter might seem almost an intrusion in the first weeks of Nora's great sorrow, but hopes that she will not mind her now ending a few lines to express her deep sympathy with her. States that all who have benefitted by Henry's 'self-sacrificing efforts in the cause of women's education realize how great a debt of gratitude is due to him', and that those, like herself, who had the privilege of attending his lectures and coming under the influence of his remarkable mind, 'are very conscious of all they owe him.' Trusts that Nora's health has not suffered and that she will still feel equal to go on with her work for the cause she and Henry 'have both been so devoted to.'

95 Irving St, Cambridge.

Everingham, nr York. - Invitation for next week; wishes Cardinal Wiseman were in England to meet them; Lord John Russell hopes to annihilate him but persecution merely adds glory to the Church; hopes Milnes will get Everingham if confiscated 'and finish off Barnes's 34'. Marcia begs Milnes to come and be converted.
