MORE, Hannah (1745-1833). Religious writer.
Autograph Letter Signed to Mrs Leeves?, 3 pages 16mo (rather worn and tattered, affecting a few words only), no place, undated. Announcing her plans for planting trees, and begging to borrow Freddy, presumably a horse.
'With as much vanity & extravagance as if there were no Bonaparte in the world I am to plant about 200 Trees to morrow, but the ground is so saturated with wet that I fear to set about it, unless your Freddy will be so amicable as lend me his back, and you will be so amicable as [to] lend me your Freddy, for two or three hours. if you can spare him and think he will not find me too heavy for I shall only sit on him, not ride him ...'
