SD1866.  Alfred Tennyson to Emily Tennyson

As published in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 21, 384 (in part).

[London]

October 1, [1855]

I dined at Twickenham, my mother looking very well and intending to keep the house on another year. I also dined with the Camerons last night, she is more wonderful than ever I think in her wild-beaming benevolence. I read ‘Maud’ to five or six people at the Brownings.
