To Katharine Olive Helmore
Elderfield
April 29th [1865]

MS Charlotte Mitchell/Cobweb-61

My dear Cobweb,
I should not have bothered you about your questions this month but that Chelsea China told me that your Mother was so much better that she thought you would be able to do them or rather ask them- and as it is so we shall get the order of things right again.

I think the two questions that will make the most variety would be the history of the Knights’ [sic] Templars and the history of the Isle of Man. I am afraid this is a poorish Barnacle but I hope the next will be better

your affectionate

Mother Goose
