Office of All the Year Round

Wednesday Twenty Eighth May 1862

My Dear Webster,

I am obliged to be a Gad’s Hill on Monday, and to remain there until I read on Friday. I have not been there these four months, and have made a variety of appointments of business, which must be kept.—Unfortunately for my powers of responding to your kid offer. I consider it only deferred.

Don’t forget your booked engagement to me. I will let you know a week beforehand, what train I recommend to Stanny and Davy Roberts.

Ever Faithfully

CD.
