Letter from W.E. Henley, Seaford, to John W. Gilmer, 1898 October 30
註釋Expressing concern for Gilmer; saying "I've thought of you several times, since I learned from the [illegible] that you had chosen the better part, & gone in for the cure. i would have written, too; but I held it best for you to get the worst over. Ere long I hope to hear from you. Meanwhile, if we may hear of you, it will be good for us both ... I'm about as well as I was when I came here to get better. Still, I feel, of late, on the road up to things, and, so far, well. News I have none. News, in fact, is what I ask of you. Send it - or rather get it sent - to Stanley Lodge, to which abode of art & culture we depart on Tuesday. If there be with you who can read, & you can be read to, make them procure the November 'Blackwood', & [illegible] the initial article. 'Tis signed A.B.C.D., & I cannot guess who wrote it. But it has given me pause, & made me rather wonder if I'm in Bedlam or out of it. 'Tis a beastly uncomfortable job you're in for. But it will mean much to you presently, & for many years (I hope) to come. A little heart, & you're through with it. A little heart & a little patience. God send you all you need of both."
