Content Description

She has received his letters [HU/3/49-50 and 53]. She is glad of his improving fortune, but for his own sake, as she must relinquish all idea of enjoying any share of it. She reminds him of the terms of their engagement relating to any changes in sentiment, terms that were dictated by him both in writing and personally in front of a witness. She is sending the items entrusted to her back to the Revd. William Humphry and asks that her letters, the fausse mentre and the inventory of her cabinet by returned to her. She will send all his letters, and any future ones, to Mr. Baker.
