Autograph letter signed to ’Dear Mr Vice Chancellor’
hoping that he will not be “doing a rude thing in asking you to excuse me from your dinner...

But it will be quite impossible for me to be in Cambridge that week... my engagements being, unfortunately, such as to prevent my attending the Installation - as, I need not say, I had much wanted to do... I confess that is is to me a disappointment. i only hope that it may not seem, to you, or to his Grace, something worse...”, 3 sides 8vo.., Eversley Rectory, 24th May
