Zone du contenu et de la structure
Portée et contenu
Sent by hand from Ockbrook. The only extant letter of Margaret Hey to her oldest child William at Silk Willoughby. William's term (or half year as it was called) would have begun in early August and his sister Lucy's extant letter refers to an earlier letter from Mamma a fortnight earlier; that would be early September. This letter contains family news. There is also a sign of general approval of the departure from Silk Willoughby of one Mr. Neville, presumably an usher or tutor in Rev. J. Jowett's employ, but hope is expressed that William acted in a 'right and Christian spirit towards him'. As to the P.S., Grandpapa (writer's father, Mr. Gray) was staying with his youngest son Edmund, then Vicar of Kirby Misperton: he went to Tuxford, Notts. in 1825, but later returned to Yorkshire as Vicar of Kirbymoorside.
