His last letter to his family from London is dated May 26. He says : " I have heretofore mentioned to you the high reputation as an author which our coun- tryman, Mr. Washington Irving of New York, has established for himself in England by the publication of his * Sketch Book. ' I am happy to say he has now added not a little [72] DANIEL WADSWORTH COIT to his fame by a new work which he calls ' Bracebridge Hall/ By reading early and late I have got through it, my engagements to the contrary not...withstanding, and can truly say I never laughed and wept more at one and the same book in my life. I am willing to think I am not altogether an im- partial judge of the work from the friendship and esteem I have for the author and the interest I feel in his success, and, indeed, in all that relates to him. " It would have been a great gratification to me if I could have looked in upon you in Norwich, if but for a very short time, pre- vious to this undertaking ; but under this deprivation your letters just received are a greater consolation than you can imagine.
