Title	Letter from Elizabeth F.S. Harris to Eleanor Isabella Franklin, relating to Elizabeth's personal struggles about Roman Catholicism
Date	19 Aug 1848
Description	Thanks for her kind note received at Windsor; she has been interrupted in her correspondence by "many occupations of the chance kind and many surrounding friends"; she wished she could have seen Eleanor on her journey to Clifton or called on her in London; much as she values knowing her, Eleanor would not want to meet her as a Roman Catholic with the same feelings as an Anglican; she is occupied in assisting in the translation of a book of prayers and meditations and in doing a small theological work lately published by the Abbess Robert.
