Some months afterward mamma and papa [and Susy, who was perhaps fourteen or fifteen months old at the time .-- S.

L.C.] went to Europe and stayed for a time in Scotland and England.

In Scotland mamma and papa became very well equanted with Dr.John Brown, the author of "Rab and His Friends," and he mett, but was not so well equanted with, Mr.Charles Kingsley, Mr.Henry M.Stanley, Sir Thomas Hardy grandson of the Captain Hardy to whom Nellson said "Kiss me Hardy," when dying on shipboard, Mr.Henry Irving, Robert Browning, Sir Charles Dilke, Mr.Charles Reade, Mr.William Black, Lord Houghton, Frank Buckland, Mr.Tom Hughes, Anthony Trollope, Tom Hood, son of the poet--and mamma and papa were quite well equanted with Dr.
Macdonald and family, and papa met Harrison Ainsworth.
I remember all these men very well indeed, except the last one.
