To Cassandra, from Rowling, "Mr. Richard Harvey's match is put off, till he has got a Better Christian name, of which he has great Hopes." - Jane Austen, Thursday 15-Friday 16 September 1796
Mr. Richard Harvey, Jr. was born in 1766, attended Trinity College, Cambridge and was at the time of this writing the curate of Littlebourne, Kent, see Letter #5, Post #5. He died in 1816.
Jane Austen's wit, he will not marry until he has a better Christian name!
I hope you have a good day!
