Transcriber's Note:
Obvious punctuation errors have been corrected.
The title page lists the authors as Austen-Leigh. The text omits the hyphen. This was retained.
In the interests of maintaining the integrity of the Austen letters, archaic or unusual spellings were retained as was inconsistent capitalization. For example: expence, acknowlegement; d'Arblay, D'Arblay.
More detailed notes will be found at the end of the text.
