SD1635. Harriet Martineau to Mary Russell Mitford
As published in The Brownings’ Correspondence, 18, 379 (in part).
The Knoll, Ambleside
January 25, [?1853]
Dear Miss Mitford,
I am obliged to you for introducing to me your agreeable young friend. …
I heard a good deal of Mrs. Browning when she was in London, and was glad to find she keeps up her improved condition, frail as she is. I wish she could have recovered from her illness as thoroughly as I have from mine; but her recovery thus far is a great marvel.
