9 Augt 1861–
My dear Brother,
I am very glad to hear of you again,—tho’ I have been very remiss in writing …
Browning is said to be here; I expect him in an eveng or two. Poor fellow, I believe he is very sad abt his loss of such a wife: but I believe it may ultimately prove a great gain to him. If he come to England, and look after his own Tasks while it is yet time!—
