Proposing marriage by letter
Posted by CathyW on June 11, 1998 at 21:41:03:
In Emma, Robert Martin proposes to Harriett Smith by letter even though he lives in the area.
What about a navy or army man not stationed nearby? If he were assured of the lady's affections and the positive response of her parents, would this be possible?
Thanks,
Cathy
