Shorter, Clement King, 1857-1926

"ë and Her Circle"

What delightful weather we
have had lately. I wish we had had such while I was with you. Emily
and I walk out a good deal on the moors, to the great damage of our
shoes, but I hope to the benefit of our health.
'Good-bye, dear Ellen. Send me another of your little notes soon.
Kindest regards to all,
'C. B.'
TO MISS ELLEN NUSSEY
'_June_ 9_th_, 1844.
'MY DEAR ELLEN,--Anne and Branwell are now at home, and they and
Emily add their request to mine, that you will join us at the
beginning of next week. Write and let us know what day you will
come, and how--if by coach, we will meet you at Keighley. Do not let
your visit be later than the beginning of next week, or you will see
little of Anne and Branwell as their holidays are very short. They
will soon have to join the family at Scarborough. Remember me kindly
to your mother and sisters. I hope they are all well.
'C. B.'
TO MISS ELLEN NUSSEY
'_November_ 14_th_, 1844.
'DEAR ELLEN,--Your letter came very apropos, as, indeed, your letters
always do; but this morning I had something of a headache, and was
consequently rather out of spirits, and the epistle (scarcely legible
though it be--excuse a rub) cheered me.
