In the name of dear Defoe which alone might be a Bond of Union between us, Adieu!
[Mrs. Hazlitt was the wife of John Hazlitt, the miniature painter, who died in 1837. I have been unable to trace her daughter's history.
Collet I do not recognise. Probably an old fellow-clerk at the India House, as was Du Puy. It is true that Hone was converted by Irving, and became himself a preacher.]
LETTER 548
CHARLES LAMB TO HENRY CRABB ROBINSON
[No date. ? Early October, 1832.]
For Lander's kindness I have just esteem. I shall tip him a Letter, when you tell me how to address him.
Give Emma's kindest regrets that I could not entice her good friend, your Nephew, here.
Her warmest love to the Bury Robinsons—our all three to
H. Crab. C.L.
