Memoirs and Letters of Dolly Madison

Dolley Madison

Description

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. I propose to lay before the public a se ries of private letters, written, without the most remote idea of publication, by a wo man to her nearest and dearest relations; and their value consists in the fact, capa ble of no misconception, that they furnish an exact transcript of the feelings of the writer, in times of no ordinary trial. If it were possible to get at the, expres sion of feelings by women in the heart of a community more frequently, recorded in a shape designed to be confidential, it would serve to present the surest and most unfailing idea of its general char acter.
