F J Lace at Ingthorpe to Henry [J Longsdon] - Much surprised by contents of letter received yesterday. Much better if not spoken to Fanny. Had writer thought he should not have asked him here. Thinks Mrs Lace agrees better not think of this again until Fanny is of age - seen nothing of world and hard to take advantage of her youth. Can give her during writer's life little fortune. Leave her to her own wishes when of age, but before that time does not wish her to correspond with him neither shall writer ask him there. If writer had not asked him here he could not have gained their daughter's affection - hardly proper to do so without saying something to them. |
