Catherine Talbot and family. : Amelia

Catherine Talbot to Elizabeth Carter, 22 April 1752: 'At last we have begun Amelia, it is very entertaining. I do love Dr Harrison and the good Serjeant; and Mrs James's visit to Amelia has extremely diverted me. How many Mrs James's in that good-for-nothing London! But Mr Fielding's heroines are always silly loving runaway girls. Amelia makes an excellent wife, but why did she marry Booth?'
