Dear Miss Mitford,
Many weeks have elapsed since I received your welcome letter, and I have delayed answering it till now that I might send you a book I have been editing. …
I am busy just now superintending the republication of the complete poems of Robert Browning, the first American reprint. It will be issued by our house in a few weeks. …
