Sunday Night

My Dear Sir

We are in deep and severe distress.  Miss Hogarth after accompanying Mrs. Dickens & myself to the Theatre last night, was suddenly taken severely ill, and despite our best endeavours to save her, expired in my arms at two O’Clock this after noon.

                                                      Faithfully yours 

Edwd.Chapman Esqre  Charles Dickens
