1 doc

Thanks Sidgwick for taking the trouble to write to him about his 'little piece on Niccolo [Machiavelli]'. Supposes that it has more mistakes than the one Sidgwick pointed out. Agrees that the popes 'systematically broke the promises they made to the cardinals before election, as it is true that their treaties sat quite as loosely on them as on other people.' Reports that he is writing a '[scrap] on Guicciardini's Ricardo.' States that his history is not half so dull as he expected. Expresses the hope that Sidgwick doesn't have hay-fever now.
