Notes and topics

"As I understand the situation, in talking to Professor Gilbert Murray and others, you are deprived of your lectureship at Cambridge; you are not allowed to come to America to earn your living."

In a postscript Sedgwick writes: "You will be amused at a compliment you and I received the other day. Mr. <Theodore> Roosevelt remarked that the immorality of The Atlantic had passed all bounds. The bounds, it seems, were the publication of your papers."
