LANDSEER

(Henry, 1818-1880, Patron of the Arts and Businessman, David Robert's son-in-law) accepting your friendly invitation and will immediately communicate with my brother touching the Picture. I thought, as the Engraving was out you could surely have the Picture. Thanks for your suggestion as to Roberts and his carriage. No one more fully appreciates D. R. than I, but when I tell you he is so fearfully severe about 5 minutes - I dare not again venture on the chance of his displeasure - last year he was awfully morbid - when I appeared at the Club 5 minutes late, he simply said I have written you a note, as I do not wish to appear disrespectful towards our (lamented) friend... under the circumstances I do not like to disturb his exactness..., 4 sides 8vo., no place
