WW and Richard Sheepshanks's expedition to France did not take place because they were shipwrecked: 'We lost everything even to our hats and Sheepshanks's smart frock'. This means he will be able to work intensely on his mechanics in Cambridge [An Elementary Treatise on Mechanics, 1819]. WW is to comply with JCH's request for him to fall in love with Miss Reynolds: 'a little more time and a few more moonlight walks I should have been very far gone'. All WW's 'little loves' in Cambridge 'are likely to die away; especially now that I have no one alas! to talk to of them - Marianne is going to be married to that porpoise looking man the landlord of the Red Lion and I never trouble myself about her'.
