Scope and content
Three letters relating to the Clark lectures: Stephen offers himself as a candidate, citing his credentials in a letter dated 2 Apr. 1883; resigns the day after finishing the first course of 20 lectures because of pressing and time-consuming engagements in a letter dated 18 Mar. 1884, and clarifies that it is the number of lectures that makes it impossible for him to continue in the lectureship in a letter dated 29 Apr. 1884.
