TALBOT4721

My dear Henry

I received My MS ¹ yes^ty & am sorry that I had not time to acknowledge it until today, as I had many letters to write. I have sent it on to Chambers,² & shall let you know the result. Many thanks for all your trouble in my behalf. I have mentioned my MS & your efforts for me to Charlotte Traherne,³ who says Macmillan⁴ is always tiresome, & treated M^r Maskeleyne⁵ in the same way, & kept him a long time waiting, so he is one of the disagreable Editors.

I see a new Magazine which seems to have amusing articles – the “Covent Garden.”⁶ If Chambers fails I shall ask at it.

Your aff^te
