Description:
Letter from Mary Glover to Mary Hamilton. She writes of her mother’s and her own disappointment at not seeing Hamilton and her husband at their house. She notes that it is not in her mother’s power to come to town to visit Hamilton indeed if they did come they would have no where to sleep as her mother does not like to disturb Mrs Granty who she describes as ‘too infirm’ to be put to so much trouble in preparing for their visit. Although it is painful to leave those we love, Glover notes that if she was not in hopes of seeing Hamilton next Winter nothing would have prevented her coming to take leave of her. She asks that she excuses her taking her leave by letter. Glover also writes messages of congratulations to Hamilton from other acquaintances.
Dated at Sunning Hill.
