Gratitude for receipt of JH's Cape Results.
Augusta Wyndham-Quin and EW enjoyed visit by JH's daughter, who delivered JH's essay on pendulum (1863) and 'one of the best photographs' EQ ever saw. Send another.
Thanks for sending [Charles] Graves's elegy on W. R. Hamilton, reflecting on Hamilton's great, 'high-souled,' 'enthusiastic' character.
