		It was in a cross-written letter that Elizabeth Peabody, the oldest of the sisters, had told Mary she'd been rebuffed by the widowed politician Horace Mann, with whom both sisters were smitten.
		The "fl art," as Mary Peabody referred to the skills required in correspondence, was practiced intensively by schoolgirls and young women, who frequently commented in their letters on both the form and substance of the mail they received as they worked to develop a mature style.
		When Elizabeth Peabody wrote of "my long-tongued pen," she was referring not only to the length of her letters, but to their reach—no letter, unless explicitly marked so, could be considered safe from the eyes of a recipient's friends, family members, or even random house guests.
