Summary
Writing that he is "glad Edgar and Jessy have got lodgings" and that he may "get to see them"; remarking that the weather has been dark and drizzly, but that "today is rather better"; informing her that he may leave tomorrow and that he plans on going to town on Tuesday instead of Monday, ("which I can do, as I get mss. & proofs, &c. every morning & evening"), with the aim of allowing her more time "to see Annette's people & make out what's to be done"; suggesting she get to the office "about 2 or 1/2 past" as "the morning's business will then be got out of the way."
