My dear Mr Macmillan

I am here for a day or two, and I hardly think there is any need to take up your time by calling, but I am going to beg for a copy of Dean Church, Spenser, and of Professor Sharpes’ Burns.2

I have never thanked for the English history lectures, of which most of the substance is excellent, but there are a few slips of detail in names &c3

Yours truly
C M Yonge

1This was the home of Lord Coleridge.
2Spenser (1879) by the Very Rev. R. W. Church, Dean of St. Pauls and Burns (1879) by John Campbell Shairp, Professor of Poetry at Oxford and Principal of St. Andrews University, were both volumes in Macmillan's Men of Letters Series.
