Notes and topics
"Monday night." "I am giving a new course of lectures this term, on the basis of physics, and it seems as if I should have quite a crowd at them." "Today I have been working at Poincaré; I must finish him this week. Also I read a ms of Whitehead's about space, very good. I enclose his note about it, which please burn. [Not burnt, and attached to Russell's letter at Texas.] Although the paper is full of admirable things, one sees he was on the verge of a breakdown—it is full of mis-spellings and small errors, and he even forgets the name of our joint book and of an article of his own. What a strange thing the intellect is."
"Tomorrow I go to the Whiteheads."
