MS Princeton University, Parrish Collection C0171: Box 29: Author Files Wood-Yonge:

Dear Madam

I hardly know how to answer you, for the having had the Angel of Viareggio is first a reason for not being able to take another story in the same line. I think however that Griffith and Farran- or Cassell or Routledge- or Aunt Judy’s Magazine would be glad of a child’s story with a little foreign colouring.

I believe Signora Linda Villari is English not American, but I do not know

Yours truly
C M Yonge

1Since this letter refers to Linda Villari's 'The Angel of Viareggio', which was published in MP in the first half of 1880, it seems probable that it dates from shortly after the publication of that story.
