110 Banbury Road, Oxford.—Commends his review [in Scrutiny] of Chase’s [The Tyranny of] Words and thanks him for his suggestions on humanism. Criticises Brémond’s views on the Renaissance and refers to the work of Zabughin, Toffanin, Olgiati, Tonelli, Gentile, Voigt, and Burdach. Is pleased to see how close Voltaire’s views in La Poésie épique are to Gibbon’s. The baby has a cold.
