Title
4 Dec 1849
J W Lace at Bromsgrove to Fanny [Lace]. Today fortnight best night for supper. Last night writer will spend there. If all well hopes to leave on Wednesday evenings (20th). Had agreed to go to Manchester that evening with Coulthurst - sleep there and come on Thursday morning - if there is any occasion that writer should go round by Leeds to pick up Johnny and Algernon of course he can easily do so. Had not thought of asking for wine but if Papa has no objection to send some it would be pleasanter as the trouble of making tea for a dozen would be great and it would certainly be liked better - should like to give a good supper but an economical one. A good cake - he means a Christmas one, not rich but large would be a great addition and it has just struck writer that perhaps mince pies would be portable. Shall trust entirely to her management.
