Summary
Responding to an inquiry concerning a servant named Margaret Riley who claims to have previously worked in her employ; stating that she has no clear recollection of the woman, expressing some skepticism over her failure to produce references testifying to her history of employment, and suggesting that the woman be directed to visit Edgeworth at her current address so that she may confirm or disprove her claim to have worked in the Edgeworth household.
