Sends W. K. Clifford subscription.
Has been unwell and hardly able to do anything. Has seen Andrew Clark.
Has observed, perhaps erroneously, that certain plants were excited to movement by a prolonged high note on the bassoon. Would now like to try a siren and asks JT to bring one from the Royal Institution.
Will provide the siren.
Returns the siren; the plants "ill luck to them, are not sensitive to aerial vibrations". Is ashamed of his blunder.
Has been asked to contribute to W. K. Clifford memorial fund. Asks JT’s advice on how much the committee hopes to raise. Would like to give handsomely but feels bound "with such a lot of children, not to be extravagant".
Thanks JT for his information. Sends £50 to the W. K. Clifford memorial fund.
Asks JT to support Albert Dicey for the Athenaeum.
