  <dc:description>Her first 'overflowing' letter has arrived describing 'a just &amp; grand termination' [the death of Sir John Frederick William Herschel]. William will try to satisfy the hopes she has for him, taking her words to heart. He refers to her 'splendidly described...great outpouring of yours to the Dean'. He gives news of vistors, Emma's recovered health, and of their children.   </dc:description>
