| Description | Letter dated 18 July 1877 to Macdonald from J.C. Horsley, The Athenaeum, [Piccadilly, London], regretting that Macdonald is not to come to London this year and that he and his wife cannot visit Aberdeen, though Walter plans to visit Aberdeen in September, regrets that he will hardly be able to find a public speaker to address a meeting in Aberdeen: 'I believe all of my acquaintances would rather be "devoured of worms" than do it!', further thanks for the fish. |
