1Dear Friend

3You know I have never trusted ?Haryson or liked him, & never shall
4believe in him. Whether this is true or not one cannot say. He is a
5self-seeking man.

7I think Miss Greene’s poem is good. She ought to print it in the
8news “News” by “an English Woman.”

10The Kriels are all well & wish to be remembered. I have got a little
11dark room, & think I shall go on to Hanover if I can hear of rooms
12there.
