It has put me all but beside myself; I go and look at it, then stand a little further oflT, then nearer, then try it in a new light — ^then go to the y Google TO THE KBV. C. B. TAYLKR. 3 Street door to see if aay body be in sight who can at all value its beauties, and enter into my feelings — if so$ I lug them in, incontinently. My good mother-in-law, I mean my wife's mother, a plain, excellent Quaker lady, who, I dare say, never went any where to look at a picture before, has been to see it ; ...she thinks she sees a likeness to my girl in it. I wish I could — ^but I quite encourage her in doing so : my girl will never be half so handsome, though far more personable than her father. But she cannot come up to her grandfather. I must stop some where, so I may as well now. I make no excuses, I will not so far affront thee. I conjecture what thy feelings would be hadst thou lost a father at the age I was when deprived of mine, hadst thou always heard him spoken of as one of the most ami- able, and inteUigent, and estimable of men, yet been unable to picture to thyself what his outward semblance was ; — then thirty years and more after his death, to hear that a portrait of him, stated by those who knew him to be a likeness, was in existence, yet almost to despair of ever seeing it, without travelling hundreds of miles — I, too, who have little more locomotion than a cabbage ; and after all to be its possessor !
