[Three Mile Cross]

Sept. 10, 1849.

I can hardly tell you, dearest Mr. Boner, how much pleasure your letter gave me. … Do you not come to England next spring? There is no one, not even Mrs. Browning, whom I should more rejoice to feel as within comeatable distance—to see very often, and to know all about.
