Scope and content
He would have answered WW's letter earlier but has been waiting for Stewart Rose's promised notice of Italian etymologies. SR has been ill and therefore he has not written much 'but if it will help Mr. Thirlwall [Connop Thirlwall] or yourself in any paper you may be drawing up on the subject it is entirely at your service'. He longs to see Richard Jones lecturing at Somerset House. He gives a list of words of Italian derivation in the English language.
