| To WILLIAM H. RIDEING |
|
70 Hamilton Terrace. | July 2. 1893 Dear Mr Rideing:
A pressure of engagements has caused a delay in my reply. A map of the
scenes of my novels is what I should not like to be published just now,
or indeed at any time by anybody but myself: but if you wish to write
a description of those scenes from the real, I would willingly tell you
privately places and points of landscape to which you might go for such
descriptions. Perhaps this is all you require.
I could not possibly get to Mrs Rideing on the 30th. Please make my apologies to her.
Yours faithfully Source: Hardy, Thomas. The Collected Letters of Thomas Hardy. Vol 2. Edited by Richard Little Purdy and Michael Millgate. Oxford: The Clarendon Press, 1980. 21.
