Lettre autographe signée

Carte autographe signée, adressée à « Mrs. DeForest » (sans doute l’épouse de l’artiste et ami de la famille Lockwood de Forest. 16 septembre 1889 ; 1 page 1/2 in-32. Sur carton à en-tête « Somerset Club, Boston ». « I should dearly like to come if the state of your father’s health permits. I shall be in New York from the 18th to the 25th, when I sail for England […] I had the pleasure of seeing your husband—just before he went on holiday and was very sorry that I had so elaborately mismanaged things—But it was all my father’s fault for not writing in advance.»
