Letter #7, Post #7

Monday 19 March 2012
To Cassandra, from Rowling, "[p. 4] Mary is brought to bed of a Boy; both doing very well. I shall leave you to guess what Mary, I mean.- Adeiu, with best Love to all your agreable Inmates." - Jane Austen, Sunday 18 September 1796

Jane left all of us to guess which Mary she meant. The notes in the back of the book say, "Mary. ?Robinson", but I cannot find any notice that she ever had a baby boy. Mary did have two girls, though the second only lived a few months.

It has been raining here for three days. I love the rain and we get it is so rarely. It is watering my roses!

Although she says "Adeiu" we are not finished with this letter yet.

I hope you have a good day!
