Pièce 241 - Letter from Caroline Trevelyan to Elizabeth Trevelyan

Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland. - Very sorry to hear the bad news about Elizabeth's uncle; thinks she is right to put off going to London [for medical treatment] as she may want to go to the Hague; 'so hard to think of parting with ones dear old ones' though it 'comes to us all'; agrees it is best that Elizabeth's aunt was 'spared this'. Booa [Mary Prestwich] will not travel to London, and Elizabeth should let them know what she decides; sure Robert will do all he can to comfort her. Asks her to send their sympathies to Madame Grammont [sic: Grandmont: Bramine Hubrecht]. A postscript notes that Booa can come any time before 29th October.
