To Frederick Locker-Lampson

Skerryvore, Bournemouth, February 5th, 1887.

MY DEAR LOCKER,—Here I am in my bed as usual, and it is indeed a long while since I went out to dinner.  You do not know what a crazy fellow this is.  My winter has not so far been luckily passed, and all hope of paying visits at Easter has vanished for twelve calendar months.  But because I am a beastly and indurated invalid, I am not dead to human feelings; and I neither have forgotten you nor will forget you.  Some day the wind may round to the right quarter and we may meet; till then I am still truly yours,

Robert Louis Stevenson.
