This collection contains a letter from Elisabeth (Betty) Mariane Magdalene Jacobsen (1843–1925), the first Faroese student to attend the Vallekilde folk high school in Denmark in 1873–1874, where she later found employment as a school nurse. The larger letter collection to which this letter belongs was originally assembled by Jens Davidson, the first librarian of what would later become the National Library of the Faroe Islands.
