Unidad documental simple 28 - William Whewell to Julius Charles Hare

4 pp.

The fact 'there is no longer a Hyde Hall [the old home of the Malcolms] within reach is enough of itself to make it very doubtful whether the future can be as happy as the past'. WW is concerned that as more and more of his old friends - especially 'you and Worsley [Thomas Worsley] and Rose [Hugh Rose]' - leave the college he is becoming faster fixed. WW must see John Herschel before he departs to the Cape of Good Hope: 'I cannot look at so long an absence of a man whom I admire and love so much, without dear regret'.
