SD1849. Frederick Tennyson to Alfred Tennyson & Emily Tennyson
As published in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 21, 381–382 (in part).
[London]
August 18th, 1855.
My Dear Emily and Alfred,
I ought to have replied earlier to your kind letter of invitation to Farringford. … I have seen the Brownings in Dorset Street where they have a pleasant lodging and seem pretty comfortable, but they both hate England, and poor Mrs Browning is never well here. … I hear from the Brownings that Alfred’s book has had an immense sale; I am very glad of this. …
