Jane Jennings offers Maria Weston Chapman a choice of accompanying autographs. The three of Wordsworth are especially valuable, as he at first refused to give them, "not wishing as he said to parade his name in such a manner. Dickens gave his with pleasure, "for the help of a cause in which he sympathized heart & soul."

In the postscript, Jane Jannings asks for Maria Weston Chapman's autograph for her collection.
