The penmanship of Miss Sedgwick is excellent. The characters are
well-sized, distinct, elegantly, but not ostentatiously formed; and,
with perfect freedom of manner, are still sufficiently feminine. The
hair strokes of the pen differ little in thickness from the other
parts of the MS.--which has thus a uniform appearance it might not
otherwise have. Strong common sense, and a scorn of superfluous
ornament, one might suppose, from Miss Sedgwick's hand writing, to be
the characteristics of her literary style. The paper is very good,
blue in tint, and ruled by machine. The seal of red wax, plain.
