December 30. 74.
Dear Mr. Harrison
Is the legitimization of a son by act of Parliament so rare that it would be out of the probabilities for any Nob, or Snob who could pay for it? 174
I make no apology for troubling you because I know by experience that you are glad to do a service.
Yours always sincerely
M. E. Lewes.
