NEWPORT, July 29th, 1852.
My dear John,—I have been running round for two or three weeks, and have forgotten to ask you to change the address of the papers which come to me….
I am charmingly situated here with Mr. and Mrs. Longfellow and Tom Appleton, and with some other pleasant people. It is very lovely and lazy; but I am quite busy. Give my love to your wife and believe me, always,
Your aff.
