This is the one of the four MJ gave me that I liked the most. Serene, calm, eerily beautiful, kinda creepy, 🫣 lol.

Letitia was born early in the 19th century (1802). She was married once unfortunately she died young at the age of 36. The snippet of information I found said she was in Ghana when she passed away. This, for some reason, seemed odd to me, but then I believe those of some financial means could afford travel. So I consulted our old friend Google and he didn’t let me down: sent me right to Wikipedia.

And lo and behold! It seems Miss Landon may have been murdered! ‘Murdered, you say?!’
‘Harumph! Oh my, yes, my dear Watson! Murdered!’

Sorry, Sherlock, you’ll have to pass on this one. I doubt it will be solved especially after all this time. No one has figured out who Jack the Ripper was, not even you.

According to the wiki Letitia suffered from some ailments and seizures for which she had been prescribed prussic acid, which, according to reports her life depended on it.

A great deal of mystery surrounds the circumstances of her death. She was buried that very night in the backyard of the house where she died. This was the home of her husband, George Maclean, the governor of Cape Coast while it poured rain.

Very intriguing, I must say. Until I read that I had no idea about all that. And just scanning the early life, there seemed to be some interesting stuff there too. As for her writing, I caught that she was said to be the “female Lord Byron”. Well, now, ain’t them some apples!🍎
