Life And Letters Of Maria Edgeworth/Volume 2/Letter 119
To MRS. R. BUTLER.
1 NORTH AUDLEY STREET, Feb. 24, 1841.
My ultimate intention and best hope for my own selfish satisfaction is to go with you and Mr. Butler to that poor uncentred[1] desolate home at Edgeworthstown.
What an inexpressible comfort that you were with your mother, Lucy, and Honora, and my dear lost aunt to the last.
