In another letter written in 1892 at Brookline, Winthrop writes to his cousin Charlotte, imploring her to write often so that he knowns how Adele's health is, and if she is happy; "as her father for 27 years, and she had never known any other father..." Also included is a short poem written in 1875 entitled "Grief Hall," in which Winthrop writes of the death of a cousin.
