Dedication
ОглавлениеLesley Castle
An unfinished novel in letters
To Henry Thomas Austen Esqre.
Sir,
I am now availing myself of the Liberty you have frequently honoured me with of dedicating one of my Novels to you. That it is unfinished, I greive; yet fear that from me, it will always remain so; that as far as it is carried, it should be so trifling and so unworthy of you, is another concern to your obliged humble Servant.
The Author
Messrs Demand and Co
Please to pay Jane Austen Spinster the sum of one hundred guineas on account of your Humble Servant.
H. T. Austen
