Item 14 - Letter from John Ross Dix to Richard Monckton Milnes

2 ff.

11 St James's Buildings, Rosoman Street, Clerkenwell. - Fears last letter did not reach Milnes; is ill and distressed but still working; wrote piece after Wordsworth's death but cannot get it accepted. Requests return of enclosed compositions. Made a mistake in supposing he could be an author; will Milnes assist him? Often ponders the fate of his subject Chatterton. Mr Taylor's money has gone on rent.
