My dear Miss Smith

I found your MS here yesterday on my return from a two months expedition into Yorkshire and Devonshire. I think it is a pretty bright description, and the history of the contending organs is very entertaining, the only pity is that it is too late for December. I hope you have had a chapter of the Thorne. I find it is much liked and I am glad to see you in the Churchman. I think I shall soon send you some of Mrs Grant to look over. I was obliged to abridge her a little to get her into keeping with the rest

yours sincerely

C M Yonge
