TitleLetter from Emma Simpkinson to her cousin Eleanor Isabella Gell
Date[Nov 1849]
DescriptionOn her arrangements before coming to see her; Emma and Marianne not going to John's wedding on account of expense, with changing their minds making it look strange to the Vaughans; fears Sophy Cracroft will be with them all winter. Only dated Saturday; 1850 has been added in pencil, but reference to wedding of John Simpkinson to Dora Vaughan makes it likely to be late in 1849.
