- Scope and Content:
- "My dear Clabburn I saw Legros who tells me he would paint the companion picture from the lithograph with pleasure, & would sell the 2 landscapes for 50 guineas, framed. You will receive the drawing of the <title>Death of St. Francis</title> in a day or two, & I will get his receipt for you in return for the cheque - 25 guineas. You must know I have generally been his business secretary, but he will have another now I dare say, as he has got married. I am very sorry to have seen so little of Mrs. Clabburn & yourself this time, but hope that she will really give me other chances as she said. I will have [?] an eye to ramshackle properties of all kinds on her behalf. Ever yours DG Rossetti"
