  • EDINBURGH, UK: - 25th January 2010:  A letter written by the widow of Robert Burns in the years following his death is set to be handed over to the National Library of Scotland after the page was discovered in a New York junk shop last year by American scholar Dr Nancy Groce who paid $75 for it.  Dated 1804, Jean Armour writes about the death of two of her children and how she remains in the home she shared with the poet before his death in 1796.  It is thought the letter was intended for Maria Riddell, a woman from a local landed family, who lived in Dumfries. Pictures shows Dr Nancy Groce holding the letter.
