Hotel de L’Europe

My dear Mr Landor

I find that my friend Mr Patmore & I (we are travelling together) will be obliged to leave Florence on our return to England at two o’clock this day. This I fear is an earlier hour than that at which you like to receive visits. …

I expect in a few weeks to meet our common friend Robert Browning at the Athenaeum Club in London. He always speaks of you with affection, & will be glad to get an account of you. I wish I could give him a better one of your health …

Address: Walter Savage Landor Esq / 93 Via della Chiesa.

Publication: None traced.

Manuscript: Pierpont Morgan Library, Gordon N. Ray Bequest.
