| Description | Dated 24 September. Writes confidentially about Kruse 'with whom, as you know, I am in a more intimate connexion in consequence of our taking charge of his dear child Emily'; encloses extract from letter from Kruse [not present] recounting breach between Lieder and Kruse; sends it as 'a private step, a private communication to you'; Kruse does not know 'as he did not intend' that this would be done, but has written to him today, with Hoffmann's approval, to tell him. |
