Autograph letter signed from J.H. Copleston, London, to William Winter [manuscript], 1886 February 10.

Copleston writes that he cannot write Winter a letter of condolence; if he were with Winter he would take his hand and "give it a pressure which you would understand." He is likely referring to the death of Winter's son, Arthur. He also mentions sending Winter the digest of "The Lord Harry." Addressed from 449 Strand, London.
