Summary
Concerning sales figures for J.S. LeFanu's novel The fortunes of Colonel Torlogh O'Brien, for which he has been providing the illustrations ("...but let us have it correct thus - 2000 - enormous sale! I wonder they print them in time without duplicate plates."); and an invitation he has received to visit Charles Lever ("If I can come I will - but it will be in summer - which at present, however, seems almost as near at hand as Doomsday -.").
