To the Reverend Orby Shipley
Elderfield
Decr 29th 1865

Princeton University, Parrish Collection, C0171: Box 29

My dear Mr Shipley,
I am afraid that such an awful subject would not suit with anything so light as the Monthly Packet, and that I had therefore better return it which I will do the next time I send into Winchester, I send you the prospectus of a cheap missionary magazine, which Miss Mackenzie hopes to make very interesting

Yours sincerely
C M Yonge

Dear Mr Bramley
I am very sorry for this Suppose you write to the Churchman Family (Bride’s Avenue, Fleet St, Hogg & Son) by return of post & offer the MS – say it is suitable for Lent & must appear then V. Orby Shipley
