Letter from Ernest Dowson, Paris, France, to Conal O'Riordan, approximately 1895 November : autograph manuscript signed

Admitting he has been lunching at the d'Harcourt since some money arrived; congratulating O'Riordan on his new home; admitting to having been "very seedy all yesterday," not leaving his apartment until evening, when it was time to eat; reporting that he slept well and "breakfasted at our Cremerie at 8.0 [sic] AM," followed by a walk to the Gare Montparnasse, where he "looked at the hole in the station" then returned home to find a letter from Smithers; describing a hat he recently bought and the haircut he is contemplating to compliment it; telling O'Riordan, "I feel so much better today except for my specific disease which increases by leaps & starts"; noting he has heard no more about a "fracas" with "the snailmer-chant," and has just seen Leopold in the cafe on his way to the races; asking O'Riordan to write, and to "remember me" to Noblet.
