Scope and Content

Letter from Martha Carolina Goldsworthy to Mary Hamilton. She had no time today to answer Hamilton’s note which gave her great satisfaction to read. She hopes that she will be with her tomorrow and writes on her health. Goldsworthy notes that she knows what illness is and hopes that Hamilton ‘will not again be so acquainted with it’. She informs Hamilton that her brother often made enquiries after her. Goldsworthy writes that she is stout and notes that Hamilton will find her to be quite fat now.
