FURNISS

With an amusing picture of Furniss flying with angel's wings, titled On the Wire, the letter says that he has been travelling about for the last fortnight & just arrived here, Brading I. of Wight to join Mrs Furniss & family. They had received your very kind present of Grouse in my absence and much enjoyed it & I write to thank you heartily - although rather late in the day. I see by the label the Grouse comes from Cere & Mildmay but as your card was found inside I take it you have been the kind sender..., and then saying that he is off to Leeds for the meeting of the British Convention, 3 sides 8vo., no place but Isle of Wight, 27th August
