Summary
Thanking him for "what you have said of me", and ruminating on the differences in their "outward methods" as well as their shared intellectual and theological aims ("You hope of the Church when I all but despair of it: Heaven grant that you may prove right, and not I, in this matter!"); noting that it has been a long while since Maurice has come to see him and asking after Mrs. [Anna] Maurice, who is reported to be in poor health.
