To Mrs Sydney Inwood Jones (1808-82), the niece of famous novelist Lady Sydney Morgan, accepting an invitation: "I shall be happy indeed to dine with you on the 30th & 'look in' upon you on the other day you mention with much kindness [...]".
Browning wrote this letter some years after his resounding success with the verse novel "The Ring and the Book" (1868/69).
Includes a small collector's note. With an embossed coat of arms and traces of old mounting on the verso and partly to the margins.
