Monday 14 March 1854 Dinah Mulock English Author Dear Mrs. Procter

I was sorry not to see you this day week – especially as my “talkie-talkie” evenings have come to an abrupt ending – I have not been well & am obliged to take some country air – leaving on or about March 25th : returning home for a few days in May – then vanishing indefinitely for the summer.

Will you say this to Miss Wynum – in case she should call after the 25th & find me gone.

Have you been quite well? – I have scarcely once been in Town or should have called – “done myself the pleasure” of calling I ought politely to say. & in this case politeness would have been truth.

With kind compliments to your circle – & a wish sincere that I may re-appear there some day –

Ever very truly yours DinahMulock – 12 Melville Terrace &c –
