[Text: Edgar Allan Poe to Marie L. Shew - March 30, 1848.]


Thursday, March 30.

Dearest Louise,--

You see that I am not yet off to Richmond as I proposed. I have been detained by some very unexpected and very important matters which I will explain to you when I see you. What is the reason that you have not been out? I believe the only reason is that you suspect I am really anxious to see you.

When you see Mr. H.--I wish you would say to him that I would take it as an especial favor if he would pay me a visit at Fordham next Sunday. I have something to communicate to him of the highest importance, and about which I need his advice. Won't you get him to come--and come with him to show him the way?

Sincerely yours,

Edgar A. Poe
