Scope and content
Wishes Sidgwick and his wife all happiness [on the occasion of their marriage]. Announces that Clifford is seriously ill, and in danger of contracting lung disease. He has been advised to 'get away for a good long time and have complete rest', and a fund is being raised to make this possible. The desired sum to be raised is to be between £300 and £400, and it is intended that this amount will cover a sea-voyage 'or something of that kind'. States that any help from Sidgwick and other friends in Cambridge will be most welcome. Informs him that he is also writing to Jackson.
