Scope and content
WW 'was very glad to hear, first from Douglas Gordon, and afterwards from Maurice [John F. D. Maurice] and Trench [Richard Chenevix Trench] that the King of Saxony has sent you a mark of his interest and satisfaction in what you had done respecting German theology. I am glad of it for his sake, quite as much as for yours'. JCH was wrong in supposing that 'the very dishonest private tutor that you read of in the newspaper was a Trinity tutor'. The person was [Frederick Apthorp] Paley from St. John's College: 'well known as an extreme Romanizer. I had several months ago remonstrated with the Master of St. John's for allowing him to reside in College'.
