Description

The Lady with a Lamp sends good wishes and a small donation to a friend

ALS, one page both sides, 5 x 8, March 11, 1890. Nightingale sends a spiritual message. In part: “Eternity begins here. And God’s life of Eternal Life, which is Love, is not a thing to wait for the hereafter. If we do, there is but a poor chance of getting it. I gladly send you 10/ towards the building of your Mission room, wishing I could afford more.” Corner creasing, intersecting folds, a vertical fold passing through her name, pencil notations at the top and bottom border of the front page, writing showing through from opposing side, otherwise fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RRAuction COA.
