LETTER 568

CHARLES LAMB TO EDWARD MOXON

[P.M. March 19, 1833.]

I shall expect Forster and two Moxons on Sunday, and hope for
Procter.

I am obliged to be in town next Monday. Could we contrive to make a party (paying or not is immaterial) for Miss Kelly's that night, and can you shelter us after the play, I mean Emma and me? I fear, I cannot persuade Mary to join us.

N.B. I can sleep at a public house.

Send an Elia (mind, I insist on buying it) to T. Manning Esq. at Sir
G. Tuthill's Cavendish Square.

DO WRITE.

[Miss Kelly was then giving an entertainment called "Dramatic
Recollections" at the Strand Theatre.]
