My Dear Friend
Though our Intercourse has been long interrupted I venture still to address You in the Character of an old Friend
I beg to introduce to You
Mrs Horner who areis now going with her eldest Daughter to the Hotel at Godesberg near your City where they reside some Time till Mr Horner joins them. They are desirous of your Acquaintance & I am sure worthy of it. Whatever Degree of Your Attentions & of your Society You may favour them with will be a great Obligation to me in the first Instance.
They will soon supersede that old Claim
[2] by winning your Friendship for themselves I presume only with earnestness to solicit you to give them a Trial for my Sake. It will be an additional Pleasure that if you accede to my Wishes I shall hear of you through them.
I am
Dear Schlegel
Your Friend & Admirer
Mackintosh
I thought of You when I saw
M. de Broglie here a month ago on a flying Visit.
