Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life of Mary Russell Mitford, Authoress of "Our Village, &C.," Vol. 2 of 2: Told by Herself in Letters to Her Friends
Pray forgive this sad no-letter. Alas! The free and hap py hours, when I could read and think and prattle for you, are past away. Oh! Will they ever return? I am now chained to a desk, eight, ten, twelve hours a day, at mere drudgery. All my thoughts of writing are for hard money. All my correspondence is on hard business. Oh! Pity me, pity me! My very mind is sinking under the fatigue and the anxiety. God bless you, my dear friend Forgive this sad letter. Ever most faithfully yours, M. R. Mitford.
