SD2546. Journal Entry of William Surtees Cook

Published in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 30, 342 (in part).

London

11 December [1861]

Went, with Ocky, to Crystal Palace Poultry Show. I had sent, only, a pair of young turbits which we bred—and they won first prize—and, of course, were claimed at the price I put on them, £2. We saw Blondin dance on the rope—and returned to Arabel’s dinner—7. P.M. Robert Browning dined with us—he and Peni generally come to tea.

Publication: None traced.

Manuscript: Armstrong Browning Library, Altham Archive.
