Letter from B.R. Haydon to William Seguier, dated 1842, responding to the accusation that he quarrels 'with all Men who are most disposed to serve me'. |
|
Lords Durham, Colborne and many other noblemen also now kind Friends - I did not quarrel with Sir Robert Peel - I believed myself right and found myself wrong and explained it to his satisfaction - I did not quarrel with you till you used me by your own account in the cruellest & most unjust manner & an old Friend who always spoke highly of you & felt warmly for you, - and when you proved what I believe you still to be - I gave up Friendship forever. |
