CHARLES LAMB TO EDWARD MOXON

[P.M. March 19, 1833.]

I shall _expect_ Forster and two Moxons on Sunday, and _hope_ for Procter.

I am obliged to be in town next Monday. Could we contrive to make a party (paying or not is immaterial) for Miss Kelly's that night, and can you shelter us after the play, I mean Emma and me? I fear, I cannot persuade Mary to join us.

N.B. _I can sleep at a public house._

Send an Elia (mind, I _insist_ on buying it) to T. Manning Esq. at Sir G. Tuthill's Cavendish Square.

DO WRITE.

[Miss Kelly was then giving an entertainment called "Dramatic Recollections" at the Strand Theatre.]
