Discussing "malicious ... criminal falsehoods" that perhaps concern John Ruskin's "mental condition." Noting that if the falsehoods are traced to Mr. Fleming, he "may find himself in a very awkward fix," and trusting "that it will be entirely cleared up." Acknowledging that Severn has the "matter in [her] own hands," but inquiring whether she should "send for [her] Husband" so that he may "do all that [the Severns] think best."
