Dear Friend
Thanks for the precious books. They are just what I wanted -- showing me the practical aspect of the Catholic Church in England 589 in these times, and telling me many details that I care to know. I keep the Dunn's Catalogue, 590 because I have marked some books in it that I want to have.
I hope you are keeping well so that you may brave the January voyage 591 without fear of being too much shaken.
God bless you. Ever yours with affectionate remembrance
M. E. Lewes.
I have forgotten your number in Wimpole Street so I shall take the books to the office in Langham Place. 592
