Notes and topics
Dr. Gardiner's letter enclosed [not present]. Took a before- breakfast bathe in the sea: superstitions and fears seem very far removed. Marry in November; then away from this cursed country of cousins and aunts. Send also his list of books read; can leave out Kant, Lotze and Wundt if not room in bag. Gardiner's letter: "I am glad he is in favour of continence—otherwise his letter is pointless."
The copy of this letter was replaced with the original in 2026.
