'Residing at 16 Gt. Trinity Lane; Letters 146 1/2 Leadenhall St'. - Milnes formerly promised subscription to a poetry volume, The Woodland &c, which Gibson was unable to publish; he now plans to publish poems in Forest and Fireside Hours, as well as a book on mythology entitled Spirit & Earth Worship. Has acted on MIlnes's suggestion of 'self-culture' and studied widely. Sends poems [no longer present]. Is of limited means; would be glad to exchange present clerkship for a government post.
