Letter from William James Herschel and Anne Emma Herschel, Upton Court, to 'Dearest Mother' [Margaret Brodie Herschel] Every part of the journey went well, with a fly waiting at Charing Cross to take them to dine at Suffolk Street. They took a train from Paddington to Slough where they were tranported to 'this lovely spot'. William describes Emma's demeanour and spirits, a moonlit walk in the grounds, and tea. 19 May 1864
