Hadleigh, Suffolk. - Sent tale two years ago in the vain hope of 'benefitting pecuniarily'; Milnes' graciousness despite inability to assist; seeks presentation to Christ's Hospital for one of his sons; has three others and a wife to support on the slender salary of an uncongenial post; harassed by creditors; can Milnes assist? Begs to suggest 'thtat the unpublished struggles and privations of some persons are oft-times as worthy the consideration of the affluent Samaritan, as are the newspaper-paragraphed distresses of a less retiring class of importunates'.
