192 INTRODUCTION
I suppose you incline to a strict regularity in your meals. If, therefore, on some Saturday, you could engage me to be present, we could arrange an early tea at any hour con- venient to you. You can arrange with relation to your dinner at home. My letter of four pages I will keep to give to you, as I desire all the credit which great labor deserves, for I scarcely know how I can have compelled myself to write four compact pages on any subject. When Annie returns, I hope to renew with you our former rela- tions, always excepting correspondence, which has never been frequent between us. And meantime I remain,
Your friend as ever,
J. W. Randall.
