Pièce 9 - Letter from John Westby Gibson to Richard Monckton Milnes

4 Church Passage, Spital Square. - Milnes' aid has enabled him to 'shake off the Incubus of Law'; injustice of such debt-recovery, of which he outlines the procedure; thanks Milnes for his kindness; will repay loan when times improve and 'Dreams of Poesy' are realised. Gratified by Milnes' faith in him and his writings; always working but unpublished as yet; sometimes envies honest toils of his father and grandfather, quoting his own lines; accustomed to hard work as a printer but exhausted by present clerical work.
