[London—Wednesday, 9 May 1860]

Wednesday 9th Heard Louis Blanc lecture on Love. I was disappointed when I knew what the subject was to be but his genius served to make it most interesting. He succeeded in giving us a vivid picture of conjugal life at the period just preceding the French Revolution.
