Herstmonceux, Hailsham - JCH has had a letter from Miss Henslow [Fanny Henslow] which has perplexed and grieved him: 'she speaks of her 'aged father' [John S. Henslow] as having found 'an asylum for his life' in a place in Kent, which, I am told, is an asylum for indigent and decayed clergymen. From her expressions I am afraid that poor Henslow must have had some terrible illness that has brought on premature old age: for he was some years our junior'. Could WW let him know what has happened.
