The present [of Henry Sidgwick: A Memoir] from Nora and Arthur Sidgwick arrived at his home the previous day, and detained him 'till a late hour'; says that they have 'executed a difficult task with judgment, and presented an excellent picture, of what the life really was....' Believes that Henry 'was one of the very best gifted minds of [their] time', and that his soul, also, was one of the highest. Does not think that anything he [Young] ever sent Henry can be worth returning to him, but it may give him a pleasure to see his notes again. Refers to one [letter] that he sent to Henry about 'the meeting at Cambridge on University Tests', and one note he sent him 'after the last sad communication'. Expresses his happiness that Arthur Balfour 'is returned by an increased majority'. States that he 'did not think it nice to oppose him', and hopes that his illness is 'only a transitory effect' of their work.
