B.A.A.S. have been trying to arrange their 1846 meeting at Cambridge. William Whewell alone is opposed to this suggestion. Everyone agrees that JH should be the next president when the Dean of Ely retires. Can they have JH's views.
Regrets he made a mistake in his letter; he meant 1845, not 1846. William Whewell has been overruled and the B.A.A.S. are to meet at Cambridge in June 1845.
Rejoiced to receive his friendly letter, even though they have no hopes of seeing him in 1846. They are still on friendly terms with William Whewell, though they disagree on the Cambridge meeting.
