The Harriet Landon Letters
History
This small collection of letters was written by Harriet Landon 1847 to her family while she was at the Seminary. One letter is only tangentially related to the Harriet letters; it is a letter written to her sister Cornelia, which I purchased three years after the Harriet letters. Hopefully more Cornelia letters will surface!
