Summary
Hoping to see Moore soon, mentioning planned engagements with Hillier on Wednesday and with Missy (Adelaide Foltinowicz) on Saturday. Reflecting on Nathaniel Hawthorne, noting "I find his English; perfectly well: for the rest, -- doubtless it is my own fault; -- I am not carried away; he writes of things which do not in any great degree interest me -- Puritans, Ghosts, New England, etc."
