Sends a photograph of her mother [Elizabeth Gaskell; no longer present]; 'It was the only one ever taken of her and does not the least do her justice'; she only consented to be photographed after much persuasion and 'always objected to its being given away as she said "people will think me such a cross hateful person"'.
