SD2813.  Journal Entry of William Cornwallis Cartwright

As published in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 32, 345.

Rome

1866 Jan. 30.

Mr. Gavan Duffy once M.P. in Ireland then Prime Minister in Australia brought me a letter from Browning—plainly a remarkable man whose energy & power are in singular contrast with the sickliness of his appearance as his manly breadth of speech is in contrast with the weakness of his voice.

Publication: None traced.

Manuscript: Northamptonshire Record Office.
