MS British Library Add MSS 54921: 147-8
Dear Mr Craik
The printer can judge better than I but I do not think there is enough of the Quest of Ulysses to make more than such a volume as the Little Duke, so I think it had better belong to that Series.
Thank you for Lord Albemarles’ memoirs. I was waiting to do so till I saw what Mudie sent me, and his box is either delayed or lost, as I have just discovered.
I will not close this letter till I hear the result of the enquiry I have sent to make at the Parcels’ Office. If I do not get the books today, I think I must ask you to let me have the Queens Journals the Greville Memoirs Princess Alice, and Lady Blomfield, in all of which I know there are characteristic bits.1 I have just down the year of revolutions, but I cannot finish off the beginning without more authorities.
The Annals are very useful. Unluckily this copy has Sheet M twice over, and no sheet N but I do not think there is anything very important in the missing one2
Yours truly
C M Yonge
Perhaps I ought to see Madame Bunsen’s memoirs
No books come – so if you would kindly get them for me
