Summary: 

Concerning his help in selling manuscripts she had given him; referring to edits she would like in a document which concerns a monument [to Byron] in Italy; asking that the document not mention Ravenna but rather indicate only that the monument will be erected in a town in Italy where he resided for the longest time; relating details of her social life in Paris and her hopes to return to England at the end of April; hoping to see him when she is in England so that she might express her gratitude in person.
