Content Summary: |
Irving's telegram reminded him that he invariably remembered old friends. He often regrets that their circumstances keep them apart and hurrying on their own road and new, not always, reliable friends crowd out the memory of the old. When Irving returns he hopes they will meet and in return he encloses his record and appreciation of his greatest friend through 51 years, for she was 11 when they first met. He may be different from the general run of married men but he knows she was a marvel. |

Content Summary: |
When he was in Edinburgh he was asked to give the enclosed lecture to the Philosophical Institution and he has since been asked for copies. Before publishing it, would Irving say if there is anything should not appear. He has referred to Irving's memorable performances which he would like to stand. He thanks Irving for his kind message of 21st. The production went without a hitch and became popular quickly. |
