GE Journal, London, 25 November-15 December 1864
MS: Yale. Hitherto unpublished.
For the last two or three days I have been disordered by dyspepsia, and unfitted for doing anything well. I am still only a little way in my Third Act.
December 5.
During the last week I have been worse than ever -- with continual bilious headache. But yesterday and today I seem to be emerging from this swamp of miseries. I have written to the 16th page of the Third Act. The other day I read to George and he approved it highly.
Amidst much malaise and feebleness, yet gradually recovering, I have struggled on the 33d p. Last week Mr. Trollope and Mr. F. Chapman dined with us and there was talk of a new periodical 294 of which it is possible G. may be the editor. Also, he has had an arrangement with Mr. Smith as to the part he is to take in a new journal. 295
