"ë and Her Circle"

Next Tuesday I go to Manchester for two
days.

TO MISS ELLEN NUSSEY
'112 GLOUCESTER TERRACE,
'HYDE PARK, _June_ 24_th_, 1851.
'DEAR ELLEN,--I cannot now leave London till Friday. To-morrow is
Mr. Smith's only holiday. Mr. Taylor's departure leaves him loaded
with work. More than once since I came he has been kept in the city
till three in the morning. He wants to take us all to Richmond, and
I promised last week I would stay and go with him, his mother, and
sisters. I go to Mrs. Gaskell's on Friday.--Believe me, yours
faithfully,
'C. BRONTE.'
TO REV. P. BRONTE, HAWORTH, YORKS
'112 GLOUCESTER TERRACE,
'_June_ 26_th_, 1851.
'DEAR PAPA,--I have not yet been able to get away from London, but if
all be well I shall go to-morrow, stay two days with Mrs. Gaskell at
Manchester, and return home on Monday 30th _without fail_. During
this last week or ten days I have seen many things, some of them very
interesting, and have also been in much better health than I was
during the first fortnight of my stay in London.
