61, Grosvenor Street, W | London
Aug 14th. 1868.
My dear Sir,
On my way from Oxford to Norwich I am stopping a few days in town Shall I find you on Sunday without troubling you? I should be sorry if I was to leave England without having seen and thanked you personally for the great kindness you showed me during the last year.1
One line to the above place would oblige me exceedingly. If not Sunday I could only come on Tuesday next.
I remain | My dear Sir | Yours most sincerely | Prof J. Victor Carus
