Summary
Saying that she has not heard from Father Neville (probably William Neville, Newman's literary executor), but she has no objection to his publishing Lord Coleridge's statements about Cardinal John Henry Newman, "whom he almost worshipped, his respect & admiration for him were so great"; asking whether Knight's new book on Wordsworth has been published yet; sending New Year's greetings.
