[There are two notes attached to this letter of an earlier date: The first is an attempt to show WW the difference between his view of the mind (Lockean) and WW's (Kantian) - 'Our senses form the natural link between two opposite realities, viz: our mind and the external world'. The second note declares that he is to add his argument against WW in his book, which is part of a larger project opposing the views of Kant. WW's view on gold does not impugn AJ's argument 'that gold cannot exist without form , and that therefore I cannot have the sensation of the matter gold without having in the same time the sensation of a form of gold']. Thanks WW for his answer to AJ's note critisising WW's philosophy. He still thinks WW's explanation is not sufficient: 'Since matter cannot exist withhout form, form is as well as matter a condition of our sensations'. Numbers are a simple quality of matter. AJ presents a Lockean argument in opposition to WW's notion of fundamental ideas. AJ has formulated his view of Kant into two pages, which if WW is interested he will send him.
