Summary
[edit]DescriptionJames Winthrop Andrews to Fanny Appleton, 10 February 1841 (d81d855a-261f-4803-a9aa-45fb926b96c8).jpg |
English: Manuscript letter Archives Number: 1011/002.002-002#001 I must Miss Appleton plead imperative necessity, as my apology for thus addressing you. I have waited long and anxiously for another, and more usual mode to declare my sentiments; and have deviated with extreme reluctance from rules of etiquette to which I should commonly, strictly adhere. But I have waited in vain. My intentions have been thwarted by causes beyond my control, and which I will not weary you by now recounting. New obstacles (almost incredible) have incessantly arisen to oppose my plans, and defeat my wishes. No alternative is left me. “Desperate diseases require the use of desperate remedies.” And with the struggling, writhing, heart, the forms of etiquette, are as “airy nothings.” –
