 Broadstairs Kent
First October 1850.

My Dear Carjat,

I am very desirous to make a particular friend of mine known to you. I give this note to
the Reverend Mr. Townshend, the friend in question, who is staying in Lausanne, in the
assurance that both he and you will like me the better for doing so. He has heard me speak of
you and yours with the regard that is an inseparable part of the dear old Sutherland [ ], and does
not like to be near to you and strange to you, after that.

He is a gentleman of great attainments, highly distinguished in many ways, and to whom
I. am much attached. I wish I were at Rosemont, to come down the Hill with him, and ring your
bell with my own hand!

Watson and I threatened, twice, to make the descent on Lausanne. I really begin to think
we shall do it, please God, next year. We have been dreadful in earnest.

Kate and her sister send their loves to Mrs. Carjat and all your house. I send mine too, if
I may. I am finishing Copperfield here — writing to the music of the sea — and here are all of the
nine children, and the rest of the caravan. We are going to have some Private Theatricals at

Watson’s early next month, and the note of preparation already makes these quiet regions.
[mutilated]

When I write your name, I have always an association with that night at [ ] when it walked up
and down before the Inn, smoking cigars, and our [ ] were singing inside. You remember?

Why my memory should select that particular time, I don’t know — but it always does
