“I received the favour of your letter. It was so
manly, honourable, candid, and so full of good sense, that I think Miss Carpenter’s friends cannot in any way
object to the union you propose. Its taking place, when or where, will depend
upon herself, as I shall write to her by this night’s post. Any provision
that may be given to her by her brother, you will have settled upon
MISS CARPENTER. | 281 |
