1265. Robert Southey to Henry Herbert Southey, 24 January [1807] ⁠* 

Sir Domine Doctor Ignorantissime

Herein are three drafts for so many acquaintances worth making on all accounts. Tuffins house is the corner either of Upper Grosvenor or Upper Brook Street – I forget which – the side nearest Piccadilly, – & the door in Park Lane. – I shall send you a letter to Mrs Gonne as soon as Edith has written it, & you would have had these sooner but I have been unwell these last three days with a sort of Influenza which however is leaving me – I forgot to send your 7–6 in the parcel – but will frank it when I get a score shilling piece.

God bless you
