He thanks Irving for the stall. He saw M'Lean who funks it. Long was disgusted with him, as any other publisher would make it go. He has told M'Lean to let Irving have the picture at once. He very much wants Irving to see Mrs Brown. |

M'Lean had undertaken to engrave Long's portrait of Irving. Long may have been referring to his portrait of Hannah Brown, but he had possibly seen that Irving's friend was rapidly failing. She died on 21st December. |
