Dear Stanny.
        Unless it should rain cats, dogs, pitchforks, and Cochin China poultry,—the Train which leaves Fenchurch Street at 12 on Tuesday and arrives at Blackwall (to meet a Gravesend boat) at 1/4 past 12, is my means of going down. In case of very bad weather or our not meeting through to any other cause, observe that there is a Gravesend train from London Bridge Terminus at 2, and another at 3..40. The Rendezvous is Waite's Hotel,  Gravesend, and the dinner hour 5.
                                                                        Ever affectionately
                                                                                    CD.
