Summary
Informing Herbert that though he is "genuinely fond of the metropolis [New York City] and rather anxious to see its bright lights again" he is choosing to instead visit New Hampshire due to financial constraints; sharing that he received a letter from a mutual acquaintance, “Ed” [Edwin Seldon], which “was a disdainful rejection of Harvard university intellectual life”; asking Herbert to visit Cambridge.
