Dear M,
That is quite interesting though I am sad to hear that some of your friendships have lapsed. If you do not regret them then they might not have been true friendships and more, familiarity. Especially if they went to school with you.
I am glad that writing me has inspired you. I know nothing of your inheritance; did it come with expectations?
I did not find myself betrothed to anyone much less a Princess Royal. I am glad for it for that would have been quite an awkward situation to have to live through.
Sincerely,
P. A.
