LETTER 587
CHARLES AND MARY LAMB TO EDWARD AND EMMA MOXON
[No date. ? July 31, 1833.]
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Moxon—
Time very short. I wrote to Miss Fryer, and had the sweetest letter about you, Emma, that ever friendship dictated. "I am full of good wishes, I am crying with good wishes," she says; but you shall see it.—
Dear Moxon, I take your writing most kindly and shall most kindly your writing from Paris—
I want to crowd another letter to Miss Fry[er] into the little time after dinner before Post time.
