| Creator | Herschel; Sir; John Frederick William (1792 - 1871); astronomer and mathematician |
| Date | 26 August 1867 |
| Description | He and Lady Herschel are sad to hear of the continued suffering of Cameron and his wife. Mrs [Julia Margaret] Cameron 'exhausts herself & allows the energy of her mind to carry her beyond her strength'. They will be anxious to hear more favourable news. He gives thanks for Cameron's remarks [on the translation of 'Der Spaziergang' into Latin] and returns comments on each of Cameron's points. |
