Cornelia Sorabji : 'Stray Thoughts of an Indian Girl

'Look at the 19th Century for October. It has an article in by me which the Editor has called “Stray Thoughts of an India Girl” – I called it Social India but found that changed in the proof. He is so pleased with it & entreats so earnestly that I would write often that I think next time I send him a contribution I will ask him to value it in coin of the realm. It will be a nice way of supplementing my allowance and the 19th Centy. pays rather well.'
