Excellentissimo! The letter[2] is a splendid etching! Many thanks for it - It is high time that something should turn up - I saw Godwin[3] yesterday who told me a funny story about Howell[4] - & Godwin had to value the artistic merits of the house which really no money can replace, it seems.
Yours
J E Boehm
