The sight of your handwriting was pleasant indeed.  I will tell you why I did not call on Thursday – I arrived  at Miss [Gillies[?] rooms before  she did. Poor thing she was in a world of trouble & annoyance from the threats of that horrible man. How important is law to help the weak! If you have half an hour  [3393 reverse] to spare go & call on her for it will do her good to see &  hear you. – I sat with her quite to my own surprise  until 3 o'clock & you had told me I must come before 4.

Title A name given to the resource Letter from Mary Howitt to Charlotte Cushman, Monday Description An account of the resource Howitt has not been able to call due to a Miss Gillies being haunted by a man. She also wanted to see Cushman's Lady Macbeth performance but couldn't do so because of a thunderstorm. Howitt invites Cushman and her brother over. It's likely that this letter is written before Cushman's career soars as Howitt speaks about the world's "gratulation" that will "one day" be hers. <h3>Credit</h3> <a href="https://www.loc.gov/">Library of Congress</a>, Charlotte Cushman Papers, Manuscript Division, Library of Congress, Washington, D.C.
