  16. Ebba Hutchinson, Diary, 20 Dec 1850–May 1851: MS WLMS H2/3/5(22 Dec 1850). Ebba notes ‘Mr Q[uillinan] & Mima [Quillinan’s daughter by his first marriage] called also Mrs Arnold and Miss Martineau and Jane Eyre whose meeting clashed in the passage making a curious blunder –’. Quillinan may have met Charlotte on her first visit to the Lakes: just days after she left, Mary Wordsworth gave him Branwell’s letters to her husband, as he noted on the wrapper of PBB to William Wordsworth, 10 Jan 1837: MS Wordsworth Trust; see also Edward Quillinan, Diary, 1850: MS WLMS/13/5/8(22 Aug 1850), Wordsworth Trust. Quillinan either sought the letters as a Brontë memento or intended to return them to Charlotte, as the sender’s representative, as was customary after the death of the recipient.

  55. CB to Amelia Taylor, 12 Apr 1851: MS n.l. [LCB, ii, 537]. In CB to EN, 12 Apr 1851: MS Bon 235 p.2, BPM [LCB, ii, 601] Charlotte remarked ‘I wish Amelia had her business well over and was hearty and happy with her chit on her knee – or yelping in that basinet you are to buy’. A month later she wrote, ‘I wish the female had its nest furnished with the expected nestling – I believe it would then be more interesting – the small egotism rather repels me just now’: CB to EN, 10 May 1851: MS HM 24479 p.3, Huntington [LCB, ii, 613].

  57. CB to GS, 19 Apr 1851: MS SG 48 pp.2–3, BPM [LCB, ii, 606–7].

  60. CB to GS, 12 May 1851: MS SG 10b p.3, BPM [LCB, ii, 615]. Charlotte told Mrs Smith ‘I will not say much about about being glad to see you all. Long ago, whe
n I was a little girl, I received a somewhat sharp lesson on the duty of being glad in peace and quietness – in fear and moderation; this lesson did me good and has never been forgotten’: CB to Mrs Smith, 20 May 1851: MS SG 11b p.2, BPM [LCB, ii, 618].

  67. CB to EN, 2June [1851]: MS p.3, Berg [LCB, ii, 627]; Smith, A Memoir, 99–100. George Warrington was the friend who shared Arthur Pendennis’ chambers and was one of the few good influences on his life in Thackeray’s novel Pendennis (1848).
