- Scope and Content:
- Millais has been confined to his bed with a cold and has not been able to send Redgrave his etching in time for Tuesday evening. Millais is certain it will be done on Wednesday or Thursday. Millais writes that one etching was spoiled during the biting process and another was not "sufficiently bitten" so that he had to work on it in dry point. In a postscript, Millais thanks Redgrave for sending another plate and thanks the etching club for their patience.
