14 Waverley Place | April 1860
My dear Uncle John,
If you are not engaged to dine with your cousin2 on Sunday—will you dine with us at six o'clock? Mr and Mrs Lukes3 are coming and some other item of humanity whom I do not know
We will have a good substantial disagreement which you like so much. I am quite prepared to oppose you in anything and everything
Yours sincerely | Henrietta Huxley

[April 1860]: This is an uncertain dating based on a note by LT, see n. 4.
dine with your cousin: not identified, it may refer to Tyndall’s American cousin Hector Tyndale, but it is not certain if he was in England during this period.
Mr and Mrs Lukes: not identified.
2?th of April 1860: The handwritten letter is missing, and this date is likely a later addition by LT.
