Content and context

WW was grieved to hear of JCH's sorrow. He does not know if he can help find him a Master for his school. The report from the Syndicate for Classical Education has not yet been finalised: 'At present we are, I think, likely to recommend mainly an improvement in the examination for B.A. degree'. They would introduce amongst other things an epistle, History of the Church and the History of the Reformation in England: 'I think this will be a great improvement in our general education, and nearly all that we can usefully do in clerical education'. WW is lecturing on morals and hopes to make his lectures into a system of morality. WW talks a great deal with Worsley [Thomas Worsley] about his plans for morality: 'we often agree that your one fault is that you do not care enough for systems. But this is all that it should be. We, cloistered theorists, are wedded to speculative truth, and you a faithful minister and zealous archdeacon look more to practical matters'. With regard to the principalship of King's College, WW would be happy to help Maurice [Frederick D. Maurice] get the position.
