  • Transcription

    Good fellow & clever, but I am afraid not over-successful
    in the sale of his works, which must now go very hard with
    him. I am most truly sorry for it. Don't buy this about,
    now.
    I really have no time to send the Norwich papers. I am 3
    or 4 in arrears. They shall be sent daily from tomorrow,
    til they are all delivered.
    Yrs J. S. C.
    I am going to dine
    ½ past 6 at Harriott's
    So, adieu .

    Monday, 5 o'clock.
