Yes! I read the letter, and it led me to her review of the book, which led me to download a couple of Margaret Oliphaunt's other stories and also read a short biography that was linked, and that made me feel even funnier about Lucilla's ultimate romantic fate. Mrs. Oliphant married her cousin too, and that didn't work out too well for her. :(

I have read North & South, and the social issues rather spoiled it for me; I didn't dislike it, but I think Gaskell's much more deft at manners & romance than social issues.
