Captain Jenkinson

Hannah More to Thomas Dyke Ackand, after 1828

Capt and are staying with his father at Clifton. What a fine creature she is; both in person and mind: they were so good to come and see me. As far as one can judge from one morning’s visit, she seems truly enlightend and devoted in heart and mind to religion. I never saw in any young woman such fervent piety. It seems to be the sole object of her concern; many people are going to heaven I hope, but she seems already there – she brought two angelic little children.
