Letter from Martha Carolina Goldsworthy to Mary Hamilton (HAM/1/14/29)
Letter from Martha Carolina Goldsworthy to Mary Hamilton. She has delivered Hamilton's message to Princess Augusta who has replied that she desires her love to be sent to her and Goldsworthy notes that she will answer for her that she will think of Hamilton 'more than once'. Goldsworthy writes that they walked from 9.30 until 12.00 o'clock and her feet are sore for it, almost so that she can say that her 'Dancing days'are over. She ends her letter in hoping that Hamilton is in good spirits and that her invalid is improving.
