Abbotsford, Sept. 24, 1818.

Dear Sir,—You were so good as to give me hopes of seeing you here this Vacation. I am very desirous that, if possible, you would come here with our friend Mr. Wilson on Thursday, 8th October, as Lord Melville is to spend a day or two with me, and I should be happy to introduce you to each other. Do not say me nay, but arrange matters so as to be with us by five o’clock, or as much earlier as you please, and to stay a day or two.—Believe me, very sincerely yours,

Walter Scott.”
