GE to George Smith, London, 14 October 1867
MS: Sir John Murray. Hitherto unpublished.
The Priory, | 21. North Bank, | Regents Park.
October 14. 67.
My dear Sir
Hearty thanks for the pretty box of bon-bons -- exquisite in taste both inside and out. It is very pleasant, I find, to have friends who think of one and tell one so in bon-bons. The style is faultless.
I am glad to hear through Mr. Lewes that you have been enjoying a holiday in Switzerland, so that you have the memory of a sky to support you under the fog. Always
Yours sincerely
M. E. Lewes.
George Smith Esq.
