To Sophia Jane Harrison?

MS Miss Barbara Dennis/2

My dear Mrs Harrison1

A great many thanks for the exceedingly nice frame, and all the arrangements for setting up the collects. I waited to thank you till they actually appeared so that I might acknowledge them at the same time. They are very nice and I am sure they will be a great pleasure to many, and help out many a Sunday

yours affectionately
C M Yonge

1 Sophia Jane (Collinson) Harrison (1826-1891), wife of the railway engineer Thomas Elliot Harrison (1808-1888) was certainly a correspondent of CMY's and a philanthropist, but proof is lacking that this letter is definitely to her.
