ALS signed “J. R. Lowell,” one page, 4 x 6.25, no date. In a letter to a Mrs. Marsh, Lowell writes, in part: “Mrs. Lowell continues so ill that I fear her having the pleasure she promised herself of dining with you today is out of the question. I should have warned you before this, but that I hoped she would be all right again this morning. Trusting she will not have made your table uneven.” In fine condition, with light toning.
