University of Edinburgh. - Sends Homer, Bradbury and Crusius. Term begins next Tuesday. Is getting on with the vocal score of Act II [of "The Bride of Dionysus"], working from and correcting the copy of the full score. Miss Busch has been; he thinks they have the [German] translation quite right now. The [Reid] Orchestra is guaranteed for the next three years, and he has organised a consultative committee 'to regulate its interior economy'; expects it to be 'six times as good as last year'. Grettie has been 'over-exerting herself'; is going to the country 'for rest & feeding-up', but he feels that though depressed she is 'more completely herself' than he expected her to be for months; thinks she is in 'a chastened mood', an 'awakening to health & common-sense' rather than the 'dismal dumps' and he is much encouraged.
