" Dear Sir : — I have hardly had a moment to myself since I saw you, but hope 

 in two days or so to have a little leisure. I have corrected or looked at the two 

 poems. You will correct A's sheets by his MS. No word yet from the Opium-Eater. 

 " I hope to send some MS. in a couple of days, as not much time now remains. 



" Yours truly, 



" John "Wilson."

" Yours truly,

 " My dear Sir: — I have been hindered by many causes, among the worst my 

 wife's indisposition, from doing what I intended. I am in daily expectation of 

 hearing from Mr. Lockhart of the Opium-Eater. I can have now no hope. I shall 

 do four Lights and Shadows, and Mr. Lockhart will be sending in something good 

 to conclude. Send down to-morrow night, and you will get whatever is ready.
