Scope and content
Thanks Sidgwick for giving his permission for Nakashima's pupils to translate his book The Methods of Ethics into Japanese, and also for sending him his photograph, which came to him through Professor Foxwell [see 93/138-139]. Reports that the translation was completed the previous year, that the book has just been published, is now on sale, and that a sample copy has been sent to Sidgwick. Hopes that its publication 'will greatly help the critical study of Ethics... in Japan as it has done in many other countries.' Refers with fondness to his visit to Cambridge, and especially the assistance he received from Mrs Sidgwick. Asks Sidgwick to give her his 'sincerest thanks' for her kindness.
