My dear Sir,

I did not read River Pontimac. It was a mere formal introduction which Mrs. Hooper requested & I have. In autumn – probably after term begins - as I should like also to catch an acquaintance of mine Mrs. Baleson of John's – I shall be most happy to accept your kind invitation, & pay a visit to Cambridge. I look forward with equal pleasure to seeing the Lions of the place – & the Lambs in your conjoint nurseries. –

Yours very truly, DMulock
