Octavius Hadfield

[extract from letter written by Octavius Hadfield]

I have just read a book on Cecil Rhodes. It is very interesting ... I have also read a book on Wellington. He was another great man who was constantly hampered by instructions from men who could not understand him or his plans. . . . Your sisters are all very good and attentive; but I sometimes like to talk on subjects which women don't care to join in about.
