Scope and Contents

She thanks Seton for sending his little book on the genealogy of his branch of the Setons. Her father, Colonel James? Seton, would have thanked Seton too. She feels it is a pleasure to be recognized as a member of the Seton family. She regrets that they did not see more of Seton when he was in England. Should he return they hope he will not forget to spare them a week. Mrs. Conventry went to Edinburgh in the autumn. Their two nuns at St. Catherine's Convent there would have been very pleased to see Seton. They claim their convent to be built on land which once belonged to the Seton family. Mrs. Coventry thinks they are very useful nuns as Sisters of Mercy. :: II-1-b A.L.S. 3pp. 42mo.
