LOT 3068
MANUSCRIPT. - [A handwritten diary of a young lady. N.p: 1895-1896]. 35pp. manuscript, 8vo (153 x 97mm.) Unnumbered pages relating to the thoughts and feelings of a young English lady, numerous blank pages to rear. Original black morocco with lock, clasp and key (rubbing to extremities). Note: the diary contains thoughts that 'I don't care to tell anyone - even my sisters'. She is in love with 'Eddie, my love, my life' who always complains he never sees enough of her, yet never makes much effort to do so. She suffers doubt and wishes she had 'deep thoughts', but also wonders about Eddie's friend in Vienna and acknowledges that 'a man's life is so busy'.
