26 March 1860:
&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
"Though writing is to me now something of a task I cannot avoid sending you a few lines to 
thank you for sending me the magazines, and for your gentlemanly conduct towards my 
daughter in all your transactions with her [...] All the magazines were good; the last 
especially attracted my attention and excited my admiration. The ""Last Sketch"" took full 
possession of my mind. Mr Thackeray in his remarks in it has excelled even himself [...] If 
organless spirits see as we see, and feel as we feel, in this material clogging world, my 
daughter Charlotte"s spirit will receive additional happiness on scanning the remarks of her 
Ancient Favourite."</ptr>
