GE to Maria [Mrs. Richard] Congreve, London, 29 December 1868
Text: Cross, III, 69.
Thanks for letting me know about the meeting. I shall not be able to join it bodily, but I am glad always to have the possibility of being with you in thought. I have a twofold sympathy on the occasion, for I cannot help entering specially into your own wifely anxieties, and I shall be glad to be assured that Dr Congreve has borne the excitement without being afterwards conscious of an excessive strain.
