Scope and content
Wallington, Cambo, Northumberland. - Robert's letter 'was a great surprise': it became his duty to consult his parents before proposing marriage when he chose 'not to adopt a profession by which [he] would contribute to [his] own support'. He and Caroline are prepared to double his present allowance to eight hundred pounds a year when he marries Miss Van der Hoeven, and will settle an insurance on his wife and children with the Equitable Mutual Society with no annual premium to pay. Tells Robert to write when he has shown this letter to Hubrecht [Paul François Hubrecht, Elizabeth's uncle].
