Catherine Talbot

"Original Letters from the late ingenious Miss Talbot, to her Friends. [From a Manuscript in the British Museum.]" (2.111-112, 189-191, 271-272). The letters are listed in Ayscough's 1782 catalogue of MSS. in the British Museum, pp. 753, 805, but they have evidently never been printed. They range over a variety of topics, and no future account of Miss Talbot or her writings should fail to take notice of them. Years later, in April 1803, another original letter, undated and without the recipient's name, was printed in the EM (43.245), without any indication of source. It is addressed to a man, for it begins, "A twelvemonth ago, dear Mr.----, I left a letter and parcel for you; for who thought of your running away into Ireland?"
