Letter Content
GE to Barbara [Mme Eugene] Bodichon, London, [16? November 1867]
MS: Mr. Philip Leigh-Smith. Hitherto unpublished.
Dearest B
I have written to Miss Davies to ask her to come and see me on Tuesday: I am much occupied just now, but the better Education of Women is one of the objects about which I have no doubt, and I shall rejoice if this idea of a college can be carried out.
I see Miss Julia Smith's beautiful handwriting and am glad to think of her as your guardian angel.
The author of the glorious article on the Talmud is "that bright little man" Mr. Deutsch, a very dear, delightful creature.
Ever yours
Marian.
