Summary:
Has found Verlot.
His sister [Emily Catherine Langton] is dying [d. 2 Feb 1866].
His stomach still very bad. Writes one or two hours and reads a little.
JDH is a wretch to remind CD of his coal-plant prophecy.
Glad JDH will give Nottingham lecture.

Sorrow about Mrs Langton. Has been haunted by death these six or eight years. Now cannot bear to look at children asleep in bed – a sight he once thought the loveliest thing in creation.
