TC TO JANE WELSH CARLYLE
[15 January 1848]
Saturday morning (down in the Drawing-room, among a crowd!).—
Thanks, thanks for your good news; write as you say to the Lady: tell us what you wish and mean to do, so far as will yet appear to your calculation. If you do not come, or think of coming, my time here I rather think must be brief. Thanks for the ingenious pill-box! I am not well still; getting a little sleep truly, but torn all to pieces with the &cs.— Hardly one minute at present, for our post depends on the coming of the Butcher.— That Letter came last night; questionable-looking! Poor Christie,—do not send me Masson's Letter, but keep it.
Taylor is not well; very silent. Today is the beautifullest sunshine I have seen for three months: frost quite gone. Adieu, Dearest: write again, at all events bid John write that you are getting better.
Ever yours /
T. Carlyle
