>Eliot gave a sealed statement to the Eliot Collection at Harvard with instructions that it be made public at the same time as the Princeton letters.
Has it? Where would you go about finding it if it has been?

Thank you so much for posting. This is a very interesting read.
They were both very insufferable. She spends her entire letter basically reminiscing about him and vilifying the first wife. And he spends castigating Emily Hill and his praising the second wife, basically saving face.
They both would have done good to just burn the letters and keep their secrets to themselves.

Both of these statements just come off as so self-absorbed and self-important.
