CHS., write to your best friend, now in England, and explain all
accounts. Send his letters also. You may yet have the pleasure of saying

TO NELLY.--“The MINSTREL BOY,” who left Gr . . . s T. n unknown to his
friends about three weeks since. Was dressed in a rusty black surtout
coat, common cloth waistcoat, trowsers marked with ink, and an old Caen
hat. No ear for music. Pray return to your disconsolate friends. All
will be forgiven, and Charlie will give up the front room.
286.--_Wednesday, October 22, 1851._
MRS. . . . . . N.--Be entreated. If you ever loved the father of your
child, if you love your child, do not persevere in your absence, unless
you would sacrifice A. F. or R. F. He is in a distressing state. For
Annie’s sake, if not for his, a mutual friend prays you to WRITE at once
to Mr. Hamilton, and say when and where you will meet A. F. The
consequences of your silence will be serious.
287.--_Thursday, October 23, 1851._
Châtelaine wrote many days ago, but there was some mistake. Three
received in all. Many thanks. Grandpapa is unwell, but sends his love to
Châtelaine. Write soon.
288.--_Wednesday, October 29, 1851._
MRS. . . . . . N.--Your note has been received. It is evasive, cold, and
cruel. It is incredible that you should be watched and coerced; if so,
come at once to the man who is now fully prepared to be satisfactorily
yours only, and for life. What accursed spirit holds you in thraldom,
and can influence you to abandon your child and husband? In wretchedness
he appeals to you against this influence. Let the feelings of your own
good heart prevail. RETURN, if but for a few days, to your home, and
confer with your husband. Nothing shall be done to mar your comfort or
ease, but do not, for the will of others, sacrifice the peace of mind
and health of the man you have professed to love above all others. Your
husband, A. F.
