Claremont, Leeds. [on headed notepaper for the Philosophical & Literary Society, Leeds] - The time for arranging the programme for the coming session of the Society is approaching; writes asking whether Houghton can deliver the Opening Address on 17 Oct. or is prevented by his schedule.
Dr Carpenter, President Elect of the British Association, will give two lectures during the session, and arrangements are being made for two lectures from Mr [Edward Augustus] Freeman the historian 'besides other gentlemen of literary eminence', so Houghton 'would have reason to be satisfied with your associates in the good work of instructing and interesting the members of our Society'. Repeats his invitation to Houghton to stay at his own house, and also invites him to stay when in Leeds 'at the time of the Social Science Congress early in October'.
