Alys watched the awarding of BR's Fellowship from his window at Trinity College. "Then the holy spirit revealed the names of the the four Fellows, and these were announced to an expectant crowd waiting in the drizzling mist outside." "Bertie's friends soon came rushing over to tell him."

BR would like to lecture on logic at Bryn Mawr. She asks that Carey Thomas find him a pupil for six lectures after Easter. Lady John Russell does not "seem any nearer dying." They will soon leave England for Berlin until Christmas. "Our cottage [the Millhangar] is progressing slowly—'the poor white slave' has been doing all the hard work. We unpacked all of Bertie's furniture, and some of the china is lovely, but nothing else of much interest."
