Scope and content

Writes to express his deep sympathy with her in her 'great sorrow' on the death of Henry Sidgwick. Declares that the latter's gifts 'both of mind and of heart were so unusually high and the combination of both in one man so rare.' Refers to his kindness in helping him in his work on the Dictionary [of Political Economy]. States that he had kept several things in his mind about which he had hoped to speak with Henry, in the hope of seeing him again in the following autumn.
