An Lady Wolesly. Über die Einladung zu einer Veranstaltung mit Dinner bei einer Lady. "... Does that delightful engagement hold for tomorrow night (Friday) & will you any kindly let me know the place & hour ... ? The ... proposal, if I mistake not, was that I should dine at Lady Staytel's. ... I feel as I ought to mention that I don't know ... Lady St., & permit ... any invitation from her ... if she does kindly expect me at her board, graciously send me a line? And will you not at any rate, dispel (by one of your own inimitable millions) the spiritual darkness of your ever shrinking & faithfull H. James."
