Letters from
Dickenson
Book ― Dodds abroad, recalling the many Levers.
afternoon ―
L.J. Goldsmid, &
Mrs. Chaworth Musters.
Worked hard at times ― Dead Sea: ― then a little at Petraja ― & later at Whitmore Thebes.
Dined on vitins. Talked with the “brothers” out of window.
At 6.30 walked to G. Scrivens, & sate till 9.30, when G.S. walked back with me.
