Cheyne Walk, | 18 December, 1880.
I have been slow to thank you for the kind present of your latest publications, of which I have made ample use, having re-read with Mr. Cross your "Data of Ethics," and the Study of Sociology. We saw that you had left your card at the Priory, and therefore we hope that you will find your way to this new home, where you would certainly be welcome. 507
