RS is down to his last £10. Besides his college bills he owes WW 100 guineas to be paid by Christmas. WW owes him £100 payable now. Could WW pay him if he comes to London and if possible lend him a further £50-100. Could WW thank Julius Hare for his Guesses [Augustus and Julius Hare, 'Guesses at Truth by Two Brothers', 1827]: 'I can with perfect sincerity admire the spirit and candour of his opinions and the pure language in which they are expressed, I cannot say that in my opinion he has not frequently guessed wrong. But when I think it the work of a gentleman and a scholar he will excuse me when I dissent almost entirely from his political and not infrequently from his ethical maxims'. RS thinks he should see a little more English Norman architecture before he embarks on his tour of Normandy.
