    Addressed to Mr. A. Dixon.

    My dear Arthur
    What are you going to do tomorrow? What say you will accompany me into the country? I know you do not mind a walk of sixteen miles once in a while nor being up all night. therefore I propose walking off this evening at whatever time you like - take plenty of time to it and get to Hanworth comfortably to breakfast. Should we be there very early I can find a most uncimmin fine bed in a straw house. What say you will you go? We will be driven some long way home on Sunday night
    Yours truly
    Miles E. Cotman.
