To Frances Dorothy Moor
April 10th 1860

MS Charlotte Mitchell

My dear Mrs Moor,

I am afraid Otterbourne will be unrepresented at Ampfield1 on the 21st, as Mamma and I are going on the 17th to London for a few days, chiefly to meet the Colbornes on their return from Ireland.2 I did not write before because our plans were not fully fixed. We shall not be long gone, but it is a pity we just miss your celebration.

yours sincerely

CMYonge

1Ampfield was the neighbouring parish where Mrs Moor’s husband was perpetual curate.
2FMY's stepbrother Lord Seaton served as commander-in-chief of the army in Ireland 1855-1860.
