Michael Foster and Thomas Henry Huxley, Correspondence, Letters 234 through 264, 1865–1895

Abstract

My dear Foster I am none the worse for the ice-cellar & shall be to the fore at the D Committee tomorrow. I will read the Report & sign it if need be – though there really must be some fresh arrangement. Of course I have entire confidence in your judgement about the examination, but I have a mortal horror of putting my name to things I do not know of my own knowledge. Did you read the three Bishops’ sermons at Manchester? They were what the Deutsches call “Epoche Machend”. I have an article about them & incidentally [smashing] [that] d—–d little amateur the [three illegible words] in the coming XIX century which may entertain you. Ever yours T. H. Huxley
