SD1233. Thomas Carlyle to Jane Welsh Carlyle

As published in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 11, 334 (in part).

Chelsea

27 August / 1845–

… Tomorrow evening at five, unless Fuz contradict, I am to go and dine with him; that will be one thing done. I had promised to Browning, but only “if possible”: most likely it will not be “possible.” …

Scott is coming over, perhaps already come now: I undertook to go out one day this week and see him. He is going back to France straightway.

… I will manage Browning and him both at once. …
