SD2752. Diary Entry of Charles Francis Adams

As published in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 31, 317 (in part).

London.

Sunday 26th [February 1865]

Steady rain. … Went again to dine with Mr Benzon; as he agreed to make no ceremonious affair. The two Secretaries and Mr Browning the only other guests. I however took the liberty of carrying without invitation General Barlow, which I doubt not gratified them. A small round table and a vastly more sociable and pleasant dinner than the other ones, with greater pretensions.

Publication: None traced.

Manuscript: Massachusetts Historical Society.
