H. Prescott, Esq. Deanery, St. Paul's, November \\th^ 1850. My dear Friend, — Your welcome letter did not bring the first tidings of your safe arrival in your native land. A dispatch of Dr. Hollands which I saw in Kent boasted of the pleasant dinner which you had given him at Boston. It gave us unmingled pleasure, as adding, I trust, further encouragement to another visit to England. Then we should, I hope, be in a better condition to fulfil all the duties of hospitality. 1 often think that if ...I were some twenty years younger I should work up my courage to cross the Atlantic. The only regret I feel at having formed such delightful friendships as I have among your countrymen, and most especially with yourself, is that the wide Atlantic is rolling and will still roll between us. Regret is the wrong word, for friend- ship which grows weak and languishes for want of renewed opportunities of intercourse is hardly worthy of the name ; and if Mahomet cannot go to the mountain, he has still hopes that the mountain is not as immovable as himself At all events, the recollec- tion of your visit to London will be to us among those cherished remembrances on which we shall dwell while memory holds her seat.
