_ Early Letters To John S. Dwight Chapter XXXVII CONCORD, July 13th, 1846. My dear Friend,--It is a miserable piece of business to say my farewell to this blank sheet and send it to you, instead of having you say good-bye to my blank face. But, unless you can come to Ida's on Wednesday or Thursday, it must be so. A sudden trip to Saratoga has deranged my plans. Will you now send my copy of the Harbinger to Almira? We have been too happy together in times past and mean to be so so much more, here or somewhere, that we will not be very serious in our farewells, for we have been as far apart since I left you as we shall be when you are at Brook Farm and I at Palmyra. So good-bye, whether for two or three years, or an indefinite period. When we see each other again we shall meet, for our friendship has been of a fine gold which the moth and rust of years cannot corrupt. Will you give my love and say good-bye to Mr. and Mrs. Ripley and my other friends with you? and remember, as he deserves, Your friend, G.W.C. _ |
