Zone du contenu et de la structure

Portée et contenu

All were written from her school, Alders, Tamworth to William at Cambridge 1831-1833. Margaret, although physically weak, settled well and enjoyed her schooling. In HEY/8/1 the friend of the Grays was undoubtedly Mr. Brodrick, the London Solicitor who had been articled at York to Margaret's grandfather at the same time as her uncle Jonathan Gray. Cholera is mentioned in letters HEY/8/3 and HEY/8/4. In HEY/8/5, brother Samuel's failure to write was doubtless the result of his having an extremely full curriculum at Leeds Medical School and the Infirmary, which he went to in August 1831. He had written to her in the autumn of 1832 (HEY/8/4). Cousin Samuel was the Rev. Samuel Hey later called 'Sam Hey of Sawley': he never married and died in 1893 aged 87.
