I'd love to track down The Scribbler. It is fairly widely referred to, but I can't see any original sources. And the original itself of course - doesn't seem to be in the British Library.

That phrase from Jane Morris, "my nerves have given way under the continual pressure of being with her", describes what it is like for so many carers.WoofWoofhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14142792485921452481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2456802468539868519.post-42762251611374411012016-05-11T00:22:38.451-07:002016-05-11T00:22:38.451-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09050035208715651487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2456802468539868519.post-67444498913717082382013-01-09T07:39:38.984-08:002013-01-09T07:39:38.984-08:00We visited Kelmscott before it closed for the wint...We visited Kelmscott before it closed for the winter season 2012. It was difficult to find out what had happened to Jenny, for whom we had great sympathy. Thank you for the research which gives answers to our questions, and puts her illness into both family and social context. So sad for everyone.liz turnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09358506837365677093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2456802468539868519.post-69734106058783024342012-11-26T07:12:03.052-08:002012-11-26T07:12:03.052-08:00Oh how very very sad,but a wonderful glimpse into ...Oh how very very sad,but a wonderful glimpse into what an illness could do to a person and their loved ones at that time!

The spotlight usually shines on her sister May but Phillip has brought it back on Jenny in a beautiful way. It's so important to learn as much as we can about the Victorian era and those we have affection for.
