Accepting an article for publication, but writing that he does not know when it will appear as both the July and October numbers are filled; asking him about the other article he promised on "Darwin's Theory of Conscience"; asking if he has seen the papers by Miss Cobbe on "Darwinism in Morals"; and suggesting Knight write an article on the theology and history of Calvinism, "a magnificent subject".
