Autograph letter signed to unnamed correspondent [Rev. Tuckwell

Headmaster of Rugby, Archbishop of Canterbury (1821-1902). Two pages, 8vo. He is unable to get to a meeting in Taunton (as Kingsley, see bkid#1911). I assure you that it is not for want of interest in the College . . . But I cannot leave Rugby at this time." Tuckwell was a "radical parson" (see his autobiography) interested in science education and other matters. The subject of the meeting was probably a new school in Taunton.
