Wm to H'ry, Feb. 18, 1910. Age: 68

H'ry's Fletcherism bane -- which amounted to his almost starving himself -- is for W^m a philosophical reminder that subjectivity can't be trusted for everything:

"Starvation in you had evidently thrown the alimentary function quite out of gear. I find myself asking if you still had kept corpulent thruout the ordeal? It is discouragingly mysterious, and shows, I think that one's subjective feelings, appetite, etc, are not altogether trustworthy guides."
