Penrice Castle Dec 26 1856
My dear Henry
I should be so glad to see you here once more after so many years, that I cannot help even at this inclement period of the year wishing to propose such an idea. Why should not you and the ladies as well, revolve in your minds the possibility of such an expedition? Theodore goes to Oxford about the middle of January, & I shall go up with him, but have no other engagement from home.
Ever yours most truly
CRM Talbot
