A very little impulse now would set her to work on public lectures, but my own inclination is rather to wait a little longer and get the Society into a still more rigorous condition internally first – before urging her to do this. Madam Gebhard is a person of the most indomitably steadfast nature, but she will have to go back now to Germany.
