My dear Mr. Harrison
A thousand thanks for your note. Do not worry yourself so much about those 2 questions that you will be forced to hate me. On Tuesday next we are to go to | The Rookery Farm | Westcott | Dorking -- for probably a fortnight, 447 Mr. Lewes's want of health driving us away from town.
I wished you to read the first 100 pages of my 3d volume; but I fear now that I must be content to wait and send you a duplicate proof of a chapter or two that are likely to make a lawyer shudder by their poetic licence.
Please to be in great distress some time for want of my advice, and teaze me considerably to get it, that I may prove my grateful memory of these days. Always
Yours most sincerely
M. E. Lewes.
