A Vile World
Lovely lunch with JASNA - DC this weekend -- thanks to all who came. It was an honor to be asked to speak. Nothing Vile about it!
"We have used Anna as ill as we could, by not letting him [Jane's nephew James-Edward, Anna's half brother] leave us before tomorrow morning, but it is a Vile World, we are all for Self & I expected no better from any of us."
Letter to her niece Caroline [all three were her brother James's children -- Anna from his first marriage, James-Edward and Caroline from his second]
January 23, 1817 [149]
Very true! How are you feeling, Lori? Would love a post update on that!
