king-chair in Hillard's room, and then in my large arm-chair; made a sortie for half an hour; then returned; and then went with me to the cellar where we last broke bread together. I do not visit the Ticknors now, and feel that our separation is growing broader every day. I have been true to them. Why, then, should I feel troubled?
