MS Brigham Young University
My dear Miss Peard,
You are a most comfortable correspondent and contributor, and it will be very pleasant to us to have the print of St. Sebastian which your friend has so kindly procured for us.
We shall be wandering for two or three months to come but it will be sure to reach me safely if sent either direct here, or to the care of Messrs Mozley 6 Paternoster Row. Which perhaps will be the best way. I send you in stamps the small amount due for all your kind help last year in the Monthly Paper, and for the paper in the Monthly Packet.
I shall be most thankful if you will take those Books of the Bible for the next years Monthly Paper and hope to send you a specimen when I can write it, but next week is to be spent in London, and though I am thence going to a very quiet parsonage,1 where I hope to do some work, it will not be quiet on St James’s day, which is its Consecration anniversary. I must ask you to send me Mrs Trehawke Kekewich’s2 address once more, as I have somehow lost it – but it is hardly worth while to ask you to write to me till I get to Baldersby and write to you, as I hope to do in a little more than a fortnight. After all I find the amount would be too cumbrous in stamps, so that I must delay a little while to get an order, which will be only in your first Christian name, as the post is so apt to be puzzled by two.
I am longing to see the Belgian martyrdom at the International I have heard so much of it but I fear we shall be over hurried3
Yours sincerely
C M Yonge
16th I have been obliged to keep this waiting till I had the opportunity of getting this order, & now I am in such a whirl I can hardly write at all I send this from London.
I find there are only 23 Sundays after Trinity this year, so a chapter on ‘Wisdom’ will not be wanted for this year, though if you have written it, it would come into the intended vol on the types.4
