Description:
|
Palombi begins by stating that she is limited to a few lines as she is forwarding the letter to England via a friend. In her last letter to her sister dated in August (not included in the archive) she noted that she had been in a poor state of health and hopes that a Mr Fimmers has visited her family to provide 'an acco[un]t of y[ou]r Elizabeth and her children'. She writes that she went to the country in order to help her recovery where she 'undertook a course of medicines, which purified my blood in some degree, and seemed to keep one alive for the winter'. The letter continues to note Palombi's pleasure of receiving letters from her friends and family.
