5 Durham Place [on headed notepaper for 14 Brompton Crescent, London, S.W., which is crossed through]. - Could not find the 'first part of FitzGerald's letter about Tennyson'; his father {John Allen, Archdeacon of Salop] had a 'most ruthless habit of mutilating either books or letters which he thought merited such treatment'; thinks 'his religion was (in some aspects) of a very austere school.

Gives some extracts from his father's diary from 1830, relating to FitzGerald [these break off mid-word, and the letter is obviously incomplete].

54 Cambridge Road, Brighton. - Has been to Tenby, as he promised, and brought back some letters of Edward Fitzgerald to his mother [Mary Allen, wife of Charles Allen] and his uncle the archdeacon of Salop. Has sent these to the archdeacon's son so that he can pass them on to Wright if he has no objection. Gives the dates of the letters to his mother, which he now forwards; can find no poem by FitzGerald or any other MS, but will sent anything on if found.
