THOMAS MOORE TO SAMUEL ROGERS-MENTIONING WASHINGTON IRVING.
[LETTER]
My dear Rogers - I made a sad con - / fusion about tomorrow _ what made me / hesitate about [^ in] accepting your offer was / a sort of hope that the [Hotchki-??] might ask / me, as I have been unlucky about their invi: / =tations since I last came to town, and after / all, I find that the whole time I have been / engaged to [Lord?] [Essex?] ! _ So much for ac= / -curacy in one’s enjoyments.
Washington Irving has promised to / write something also in the Album chez vous.
Yr ever
T. Moore
