Beskrivelse
Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. My dear Mrs Clifford,
When towards the end of April 1879 I called upon you in answer to an urgent request to do so, it was with much surprise that I heard from you that it was one of your lamented Husband's last requests in regard to his work that I should be one of two persons to be asked to see the remaining Manuscript of his admirable book on Dynamic through the press. Though much gratified by his kind approval of what I had written upon the portion already in prints I could hardly look upon myself as qualified to undertake such a task - who indeed could hope to succeed in fitly editing fragments which had not received his last energizing touches? Whatever diffidence may have at first deterred me yielded on further reflection to your pressing solicitation.
