1395. Robert Southey to Sharon Turner, 10 December 1807 ⁠* 

My dear Turner

This will introduce to you Mr De Quincey, an Oxonian, – who if he were not very different from Oxonians in general would not be the bearer of a note from me to you. I doubt not that you will be well pleased with him, or <otherwise> I should not have offered him this introduction –

yrs very truly

R Southey.

Dec. 10. 1807.
