On embossed notepaper for Emmanuel College, Cambridge. - Would be glad to have the selections from the Cayley papers which Rouse Ball has set aside for him; already has a few specimens of Cayley's autograph work which Forsyth sent him when editing Cayley's collected works, but the papers Rouse Ball has chosen may have an 'intrinsic interest' for him. Has 'never really "gone in for" polyhedra', and doubts whether he deserves to have the Taylor collection, but would like to inspect it; wonders whether Hobson was right to decline it for the School [of Mathematics?]; polyhedra 'have now rather an extra importance, with the mathematical crystallography so much to the fore'; asks when and where he may see the models.
