                Twenty Seventh February 1846.
My Dear Sir.
                Since those remote times when I had the pleasure of passing some happy hours in your society, I have heard wild legends concerning you – darkly shadowing forth the possibility of your entrance into the blessed state, and furthermore of your presenting yourself in Italy, when I was there, a year ago.
                As you never came, I am induced to think you may possibly be in Edinburgh; and if so, allow me to present to you, one of my dearest and most valued friends, in the person of Mr. Macready. His name is not strange to you; nor will he be long, I think.
                Mrs. Dickens begs to be cordially remembered to you.
                Always Believe me
                                Faithfully Yours
                                Charles Dickens
Angus Fletcher Esquire.
