Please pay special attention to the picture on here, and see how Gerogies writing is losing its neatness – I kind of imagine here sitting there with her handkerchief to hand!

My darling husband,

They want me to go to Gainsboro’ – I have had another letter this morning – must I go? – I will not stay here, & the managers seem all right though they want a lot for their money. I’ve also heard from Exeter again but I don’t care about it much.

Oh my dear husband wont you let me come home instead – oh I’m quite sure I’ll be good & I wont want my own way or anything else & I’m sure I’ll do exactly as you tell me & so far as my parents are concerned I’m sure I never will deceive you.

I cant write any more – my agony of mind is too great but oh ! my dear, my dear if I am to go – let me see you before, say good bye to me – if I once go I feel as if it would be forever  there I cant write anymore

Always yours


Georgie



They want me on the 19th inst
