Page three of a letter dated October 29 1823 describing Lord Byron’s memoirs which has been discovered at Trinity College
The letter, from Elizabeth Palgrave, was discovered in Trinity College’s Wren Library by archivist Adam Green, who was cataloguing the Dawson Turner archive. “I opened the pages accidentally at that part of his Lordship’s life which mentions his marriage , and I read it with the utmost interest and avidity,” she wrote.
“It is grievous to read his declaration of indifference to his wife and of aversion to her mother, whom he never mentions but by the most opprobrious epithets.She wrote that Byron’s memoirs “contain the most severe remarks, not only on Sir Ralph Milbanke’s family, mode of life – but all the families in the neighbourhood whom his Lordship met, are mentioned by name and classed in the wittiest but most cruel manner”.
“For centuries people have wondered what Byron’s lost memoirs might have contained, so it is truly exciting to have another first-hand account from someone who read them,” she said.
