| Content Summary: |
She sends a perfumed plant Willard tells her is a new class: a Beonnia. It is a harrassing day. She feels obliged to go early to the Academy with Mr Long. The Flower Brigade expect a visit after seven so she went home soon after 6 o'c when Irving so often comes for a chat. She tells him in case he might come. She had given her box away and so loses her source of consolation in the place she feels most like she was when all things were beautiful when Mrs Brown was alive. (Postscript) The flower pot was one of theirs at Torquay she thought Irving would like. |

When can Irving visit them? They dine at eight when the House is not sitting. Could he visit on Sunday for a simple dinner at 1.30 or 3? Mr Broadfield is coming to London on 17th and would like to meet Irving, so perhaps they could arrange for Sunday 18th. Mr Bright admired Irving's Claude Melnotte. |
