| Evidence: | [Catherine Talbot to Elizabeth Carter [1758]:]
'"Henrietta" has been useful to us here, but there are many things in it that I dislike, and that tally with my opinion of the writer. That brother is execrable. -- There are bits of pride and sauciness in Henrietta, and reflections in one place tending to ridicule the belief of a particular Providence, to which I object very greatly.' |
