GE to Sara Sophia Hennell, London, [16 January 1861]
MS: Yale. Endorsed: Jay. 17. 1861. Hitherto unpublished.
Blandford Sq. | Wednesday Evening.
Dear Sara
Come to us for luncheon or dinner, or both, on Friday or Saturday -- or both, if you can. I should like you, if you have no better engagement, to dine with us on Saturday, because there might be one or two people dropping in in the evening whom you would like to see.
On Sunday there is a project of Mr. Lewes's mother 687 coming to lunch with us, if the day is fine enough, so that Sunday would be less pleasant for your visit.
We are quite settled now, and you can't derange us at all by popping in just when it suits you after 'bd past one.
Ever yours affectionately
M. E. Lewes.
