Letter from Maria Eliza Rundell to Mary Hamilton, relating to the marriage of Hamilton\u2019s daughter, Louisa Dickenson. Rundell writes that of all the congratulations that will be offered on the marriage, none \u2018will be offered with greatest sincerity, than that from an old woman who presided at the birth of the Bride\u2019. She wishes the couple well for their future and hopes that \u2018they experience that permanent happiness in the married state, which the exercise of virtue, and the peaceful enjoyment of domestic life, alone can give\u2019.<\/p>
