Description | 'Replying to your letter of the 27th, I am very full of engagement to-morrow and I do not know that there would be any great advantage in a personal interview unless ou have something special to suggest beyond what is contained in your letter, which I will keep before me. If there is any specific proposal that you really wish to discuss with me I will make a point of seeing you, but in that case should prefer some day, not Thursday, next week.' |
