Herstmonceux, Hailsham - JCH gives a reference for Clement Cobb, who comes to Trinity College in October. Thanks WW for his letter about the vindication of Bunsen [JCH, 'Vindication of Chevalier Bunsen from the charges of the 'Christian Remembrancer'', The British Magazine, 1846], and is pleased WW agrees with JCH 'with regard to the relation between science and the Bible'. The subject of JCH's paper on the vindication of Bunsen 'is one of great difficulty and delicacy, because the faith of so many simple good people will be grievously disturbed, when they find that their notion of inspiration is untenable'. An advertisement in the Blackwood Magazine has announced a third letter on English Hexameters - 'Your new editions, I suppose, will cost you a good deal of labour; for such works are never completed'.
