Thanks Ward for magazine and news of [Thomas] Hood; enlisting Lord Francis [Egerton?] was a good idea; sends newspaper account [no longer present] of Birmingham Athenic Institute, which would welcome copies of the magazine. Ward's otherwise striking Camberwell article gave the impression he had not met Susan Cleverly. [Meinhold's] Amber Witch is an obvious fraud; Fourierism is flawed in requiring to be understood as a complete system, for mankind lives on mixed crumbs of philosophy; 'All that's great & good in the world is got at indirectly by the masses - the Philosopher, of course, may hold the complete and abstract Truth'.
