Scope and content
Refers to her writing and regrets the 'imperfection of [her] experience, and of [her] knowledge generally'. Asks Sidgwick of his own experiences in writing. Had planned to leave leave town on 4 [June], but a problem with the house prevents them. Reports that she has been 'so much of an invalid lately' and that she is looking forward to the peace of the country.' A compensation for staying in town an extra week, she says, would be the pleasure of seeing friends.
