Dear Browning

Mrs Sartoris told me of the mistake she made– I called on you to rectify it—on Friday & Saturday I dine alone at 7– If you agree with me that its of less consequence what we eat than with whom please come and dine with me on either of those days.

If you are engaged on those days—dine with me at the Reform [1] at 7 on Sunday

faithfully your friend

E. J. Trelawny [2]
