Tuesday.
My dear Mr. Craik 680
Among the very pleasant effects of [Middlemarch] we both count the sympathy you and Mrs. Craik have given it. That is real success -- to touch the readers whom one most desires to touch!
Ever yours truly
G. H. Lewes.
Geo. L. Craik Esq.
It is but "fair" that you should admire my wife as I am a very old admirer of yours.
