My dear friend

I feel sure Mrs Vidal's tale would have no chance in Good Words. – They have mine going all through 1862. – which will occupy too much space to admit another continuous tale. Of course she can take the chance of sending it to Mr Macleod for 1863. – But I doubt very much if her extreme lengthiness would not be worse in a periodical than a book. – I can’t read it till after Xmas, Christmas being first in the agonies of ending my own – but I will then if you like. –

Love to your dear people at Trinity St Street –

Ever yours sincerely DMulock. –
