Trinity College - WW will be voting for [James] Scarlett in the forthcoming election: 'the least evil and as likely to be most frequently on the right side when there is one'. If RJ is 'not a whig I hope you are anti-Tory enough to join us. Woodhouse [Robert Woodhouse] has taken the lead a good deal in bringing Scarlett here'. WW is glad RJ's 'book goes on prosperously and I think you are right to hasten it as much as you can for it will be both more easy and most honourable to knock down Ricardo's errors while they are new'. WW does 'not fear so much discrepancy between our views of the philosophy of science as you anticipate - I shall I assure you be the most inductive of men; and if, instead of deriving some of my principles from the nature of things, I tell you that they are the results of definitions, and hope you will be pacified and it will answer my purpose as well'.
