Every so often in the archives, I come across a letter that feels less like a document and more like a window into someone’s soul.
This one… written by Alberta Sturges to George Montagu in May 1905, is exactly that.
Two months before marrying George Montagu, Alberta Sturges still hadn’t said yes.
In this private letter, she writes to him with honesty, conviction, and a spiritual intensity that will take your breath away. It’s not just about love - it’s about purpose, faith, and a woman’s struggle to surrender to something larger than herself.
