40 Mecklenburgh Sqr. W.C. Thanks him for his kind words about his edition of Sophocles for the Loeb Classical Library, find his hendecametric experiment a tour de force.
Edinburgh - Thanks WW for his last letter. He is sorry that there is a view in the south prevailing, which suggests both he and David Brewster have been at 'dagger's drawing' over their late contest [for Professor of Natural Philosophy at Edinburgh University, see JDF to WW, 31 Mar. 1833 ] - the opposite was the case. JDF still thinks that an abridgement to WW's book on mechanics [The First Principles of Mechanics: With Historical and Practical Illustrations, 1832] 'with some leading propositions for the 3 first sections of Newton (taken from your 'Introduction') and concluded with a comprehensive mathematical theory of Hydrostatics' would be really useful [see JDF to WW, 31 Mar. 1833].
