Reports that he has translated Sidgwick's 'opinion on the Japanese Constitution', and presented it to Count Yamagata, the Prime Minister, and Count Ito, who were 'delighted to read so full a report on the Constitution from [the] English Jurists.' They asked him [Kameko] to write to Sidgwick to thank him. Relates that he has been appointed a Life Member and Chief Secretary of the House of Peers by the Emperor. The opening of their first parliament is to take place on 29 November 1890. Refers to a photograph album of 'Japanese scenery', which he sends to Sidgwick through the Japanese legation in London.
