MISS HOWE,

I have your's of this morning. All that has happened to the unhappy body

you mentioned, is what we foretold and expected. Let him, for whose sake

she abandoned us, be her comfort. We are told he has remorse, and would

marry her. We don't believe it, indeed. She may be very ill. Her

disappointment may make her so, or ought. Yet is she the only one I know

who is disappointed.

I cannot say, Miss, that the notification from you is the more welcome,

for the liberties you have been pleased to take with our whole family for

resenting a conduct, that it is a shame any young lady should justify.

Excuse this freedom, occasioned by greater. I am, Miss,

Your humble servant,

ARABELLA HARLOWE.
