Description
An account of the resource
Elizabeth is writing to her son Frederic and discusses possible visits and trips that will be made. She also addresses latest sermons at church. This letter is an update for Elizabeth’s son who it seems she has not seen in a while. It is obvious that she misses him and wants him to visit. Elizabeth mentions other people and the letters they have received such as Bethia learning that Mrs. Fisher is not going to England and is instead going to Havre. Elizabeth worries about their safety as well as the safety of her children.
