J.F. met the last one this morning and he proposes to visit her, that is to say Elizabeth Fry, this evening at eight o'clock at the Hotel de Castille in the rue Richelieu, and Josiah Forster comes here on behalf of his friend to beg Berenger to be good enough to come to the same hotel at the same time this evening so that they can discuss the important subject of prisons...”
