I have received a copy of the Wild Irish Girl, of
which the value is increased by a line which tells me that the author has been
kind enough to think of me. I shall always value the book for its own sake, and
for the sake of the giver.
Believe me,
Dear Lady Morgan,
Your faithful servant,
Thomas Babington Macaulay, baron Macaulay (1800-1859)
English poet, critic, and historian, author of The History of England
from the Accession of James the Second, 5 vols (1849-61).
