I cannot hope to be able to help gather the apples at least the green ones ... that will be something to look forward to ...", 2 sides card, West House, Campden Hill headed card, Sunday, no date,

BRETT
(John, 1831-1902, Landscape Painter, Pre-Raphaelite)
ALS to Mrs Malleson
saying that she is "one of those few who have believed in me these many years; a fact whereof I have always felt very proud; more so than I well know how to say. Any little circumstance therefore which would seem to justify your faith is intensely welcome ... In this light I value the associateship. It will now be my duty to take a share of the teaching in the schools and if either of your children should go to study there you know it will be a great gratification to me to devote to them the best I can do in that way. The last time we went to Camp Cottage you were all away ... We have now six babies all told and the latest still keeps his mother nearly always at home so you will be nearly sure to find her when you come. I hope I may be no less fortunate but to save me a disappointment you must stay to dinner and there will I hope be no reason for your returning to Wimbledon that evening ...", 3 sides 8vo., 6 Keswick Road, Putney, 30th January
