#AnneLister and #AnnWalker celebrated their anniversary each year on February 10, often with the recurring tradition of plum pudding and wine.
These journal excerpts from 1835 to 1840 offer us a glimpse into their ritual, which had a remarkable way of softening tensions and stirring connection.

Ann Walker left £10 to the people of Lightcliffe at Xmas in her will - enough personal estate was invested in consolidated 3% annuities (“consols”) to generate an annual return of £10. Ten pounds is 3% of 333 pounds, 6 shillings and 8 pence, and the actual receipt is below. ⬇️
