Scope and content
Wallington, Cambo, Morpeth. - Thought Robert would 'taste' Henry Adam's letter; would be glad to hear what he thinks about Adams's "Education" but it is at Welcombe so must wait. They are having snow, which 'exhilarates [them] in inverse proportion to [their] years; Julian is 'in ecstasies' about it. He read Macaulay's essay on Addison when he was young; discusses the similarities between them and the evident sympathy felt by Macaulay.
