Scope and content
Headed notepaper for Swainston, Isle of Wight. - Saw the announcement in this morning's Times of the birth of Milnes' son 'with the greatest pleasure'; hopes that all is well, and would much welcome it if Milnes could find time to write an assurance of his wife's 'well doing'. His wife 'takes the liveliest interest in the event'. Their own nursery 'had an increase' recently; since the child [Stephen Louis Simeon, b. Nov. 1857] 'stands No. 3 on the muster role of boys, he is of less importance', but Simeon cannot wish Milnes 'a better wish than that your little boy may be as thriving and as healthy'.
Tried to find Milnes a few weeks ago when in town, but he was at Bowood. Asks what Delepierre is doing about 'our new Vol. of Miscellanies. If the Philobiblon sleeps, it will not do well'.
