Added description
Senders include close friends such as Julia T. Martin, Julie Bredt, and Rev. Dr. Eccleston, as well as acquaintances and business contacts. The envelopes are dated from July to August 1892 and provide a snapshot of the social and professional exchanges that defined Austen’s life during that year.
