The Mary Hamilton Papers

<p style='text-align: justify;'>Letter from Mary Sharpe to Mary Hamilton. The letter is concerned with Sharpe's health. The waters at Tunbridge Wells, she believes, have been beneficial to her spirits, 'but all my complaints are of late turned to faint sickness which attack me the moment I hold a pen for a quarter of an hour'. Sharpe is sorry that Hamilton is unable to visit her and Mrs Carter at Mill Hill, and notes that her 'beloved mama' [Carter] desires to be remembered to Hamilton and that she is 'much as usual not worse', and has a headache. Sharpe continues to write of Mrs O'Keefe (HAM/1/22/13) and on a proposed introduction to Miss Gunning (<a target='_blank' class='externalLink uom-purple' href='https://archiveshub.jisc.ac.uk/manchesteruniversity/data/gb133-ham/ham/1/15'>HAM/1/15</a>).</p><p style='text-align: justify;'>Dated at Deal, [Kent].</p>
