Scope and content
Refers to the announcement, which appeared in that day's newspapers, [concerning Lightfoot's appointment as Bishop of Durham]. Refers to it as 'this great trouble', and declares that he would value the sympathies of Sidgwick and men like him highly 'in this great trial of [his] life.' Refers to the uprooting of all the long associations and interests of more than twenty years'; he dares not dwell on his 'Cambridge regrets', for fear of unnerving himself.
