Scope and content
Trinity College - WW is sorry RJ is so disturbed in spirit: 'Pray give up your intended Review of my book (for I suppose it is that which torments you) and think no more about it' [see WW to RJ, 13 May 1837]. WW does not think the Quarterly Review will 'take it in'. WW is a little angered that RJ has not answered any of his letters of late, which he puts down to his work on the Tithe Commission. WW disposed of David Brewster's review ['On the History of the Inductive Sciences', Edinburgh Review 66, 1837] 'exactly as I intended'. WW has preached his sermons on the Foundations of Morals, which he will soon print' ['On the Foundation of Morals: Four Sermons Preached before the University of Cambridge', 1837]. He has also almost printed his book on the use of mathematics in education ['Mechanical Euclid', 1837].
