TC TO K. R. H. MACKENZIE

Chelsea 11 Novr, 1853—

Dear Sir,

I have received Mr Landor's Book;1 and already read the greater part of it, with results that might have pleased him and you.

I am much obliged by your attention in this matter; and by the kind sentiments you express towards me, of which I shall beg a continuance so long as you can be so favourable.

I remain, with many kind regards

Yours very truly /

T. Carlyle

K. R. H. Mackenzie Esq
