Holly Lodge, Southfields | Wandsworth | Friday.
My dear Blackwood
From a letter to-day I learn that "the Times" has stamped Liggins as a first-rate genius; whereupon I infer there has been a review of the book. 104 Is this so? If so, please send us the paper, as G.E. is most anxious about the Thunderer -- the only one indeed he cares to see; and I told you that neither of us ever saw that paper except by accident.
Ever faithfully yours
G. H. Lewes.
