Autograph letter signed : Salisbury, to William Angus Knight 1894 January 10.

Thanking him for a copy of "Christian Ethic" which just arrived in the post and saying he "read the review of your other new book in the Spectator with true interest. The little vol. of Wordsworth's prose I gave to my wife on Monday, the 7th, our 33rd marriage day! It is a charming volume;" telling him how much they like his son saying "He is a very interesting young man, full of life & ideas and he reads & thinks for himself...I am not disposed to be hard on the youth of my old age. I hope your son will come to us in fair weather when he wants a rest. He has enough to do but must take care of his health. It was old Mr. Whitwell Elwin, editor of Pope and of the Quarterly Review after Lockhart from 1853-1861, who told me the sad story of S.T. Coleridge;" giving him Elwin's address at the Booton Rectory if he wanted to contact him "in the course of your new editing. I am sure he would give you any help in his power - He is now old & rather low about writing but his talk is very good;" relating news of recent books and mutual friends.
