She found the interesting Memoirs of Corsica when she opened her papers at St Leonards. She prizes it very much and it brings back memories of when Irving's gifts gave much pleasure and interest to Mrs Brown who is still in her mind.... The Gordons and the Keppels are there and they are all waiting to ring Irving's Christmas Bells of good wishes when he arrives, in anticipation of his season. (Postscript) They come up on Monday to stay. |

| Notes: |
'Memoirs of Corsica' is the title of a work by Frederic Neuhoff published in London in 1768, the same year as James Boswell's better known account but it is not known if this was Irving's gift, described as pretty and nice. |
