Summary
Saying that he just heard that she was in Town and would like to call on her the following day at 12 "...to have half an hours chat with you. I am aware that the hour is full early, but as I but seldom come to Town, and must meet my lawyer at 1 at Kensington, I hope you will admit me. Don't give yourself the trouble of answering this, as I mean at all events to take my chance of calling at your door."
