text_original: Hyde Park Gardens, August, 1S53. " My dear Father, — In compliance with your repeated solicitations I have determined upon taking measures by which I hope the future welfare of your youngest daughter may be secured. " I must, however, remind you that Eleanor Yane and I are the children of different mothers ; that she has, therefore, less claim upon me than a sister usually has; and I freely confess I never heard of one sister being called upon to provide for another.
