| Explains that she has hesitated to write to NS sooner, lest a letter might seem almost an intrusion in the first weeks of NS' great sorrow, but hopes that she will not mind her now ending a few lines to express her deep sympathy with her. States that all who have benefitted by HS' 'self-sacrificing efforts in the cause of women's education realize how great a debt of gratitude is due to him', and that those, like herself, who had the privilege of attending his lectures and coming under the influence of his remarkable mind, 'are very conscious of all they owe him.' Trusts that NS' health has not suffered and that she will still feel equal to go on with her work for the cause she and HS 'have both been so devoted to.' |
