Evidence

George Eliot to Sara Sophia Hennell, London, 19 November 1872. "Among our common friends I can tell you of Mr. Herbert Spencer as altogether prosperous in mind and body. You know how finely the Americans have behaved in providing him with a German amanuensis (over and above the English one) to help him in his historical inquiries? And the plan is answering to his satisfaction. I dare say you don't neglect his papers on Sociology in the Contemporary Review. Love to Cara and Mr. Bray, and deeply felt fellowship, dear Sara, with you, in the thoughts of this time." GEL 5: 328
