Scope and content
Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland. - Interested in Robert's account of the 'lesser Hunt'; the only test of a game is 'personal experience'; nobody would think that baseball could become the 'national sport of America' judging only from a written account. Would like to be with Robert at Seatoller, and take the sort of walks he did with Edward Young, Arthur Humphreys, and Henry Sidgwick; 'it is good to have such friends in one's own sons'. Has just been to London to be sworn in a Privy Councillor before the new King, who wears his naval uniform which is 'very effective for a King of England'. Glad Robert took Bessy to the Japanese Exhibition [the Japan–British Exhibition at White City]; looks forward to seeing the Oriental paintings at the British Museum.
