Autograph letter signed : on the yacht "Rover," Thorpe, Norwich, to Arthur Moore, 1889 July 17.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/505868509

Thanking Moore for a letter and praising Norwich. Envying Moore's "glimpse of Mignon" [the child actress Minnie Terry], praising her, and hoping to possess a new photograph soon. Looking forward to returning to London after a fortnight in the Broads, and referencing their collaborative work on the novel "Felix Martyr." Discussing literature, mentioning Meredith, Thackeray, Zola and noting that "when you come to delicacy -- subtlety -- there is only H. James & his master Tourguènef of novelists." Mentioning responses to their contributions in The Critic, and asking Moore to dine. Mentioning "Diana of the Crossways," and wishing he had some absinthe on board. Hoping that Moore has been "more prolific of pen" than his "unworthy collab[orator]."
