Summary
Acknowledging receipt of a letter with an enclosure from "Mr. Romanes" and informing him that he sent them to his "Co Trustee Mr. Melville" as he cannot "act without his cooperation"; further remarking that, for his own part, he "should certainly decline the proposed interview" as Mr. Romanes's "known high character" makes an apology unnecessary.
