I have only heard of it in a very partial account to-day; but I deeply lament alike the extinction of a young and promising life, the loss your affectionate heart has sustained, and the circumstances of horror with which it has been accompanied.

I shall hope to hear of you through some common friend.

I cannot ask you to write, but beg you to believe me always affectionately yours, W.E.

GLADSTONE.
