AH's college exams. Prefers that AH come home, rather than JH coming to Clapham and using Charles Pritchard's astronomy instruments. Describes 'revolving reflector' that JH designed for studying star spectra. Margaret and Duncan Stewart are coming to Clapham tomorrow for races. Many visitors at Collingwood.
