LETTER 576
CHARLES LAMB TO EDWARD MOXON
[P.M. April 25, 1833.]
My dear Moxon, We perfectly agree in your arrangement. It has quite set my sister's mind at rest. She will come with you on Sunday, and return at eve, and I will make comfortable arrangem'ts with the Buffams. We desire to have you here dining unWestwooded, and I will try and get you a bottle of choice port. I have transferr'd the stock I told you to Emma. The plan of the Buffams steers admirably between two niceties. Tell Emma we thoroughly approve it. As our damnd Times is a day after the fair, I am setting off to Enfield Highway to see in a morning paper (alas! the Publican's) how the play ran. Pray, bring 4 orders for Mr. Asbury—undated.
In haste (not for neglect)
Yours ever
C. LAMB.
Thursday.
[Lamb evidently refers to Moxon's engagement to Miss Isola being now settled.
The play was Sheridan Knowles' "The Wife," produced on April 24.
The Buffams were the landladies of the house in Southampton Buildings, where Lamb lodged in town.] The Works of Charles and Mary Lamb — Volume 6
