Letter, from Sophia E. De Morgan to Margaret Brodie Herschel, dated at 6 Merton Road

Reference number: HS/6/441

Date: 1 February 1873

Description

Autograph letter signed by sender. Will send a large number of the remaining letters next week. Would be grateful if she would put them in order. The Budget of Paradoxes [of Augustus De Morgan] has been pleasant but difficult work owing to the printers' strike.
