MS location unknown. Photocopies lent by Barbara Dennis: Maggie/21

My dear Maggie
I hope you will have a happy Christmas I daresay you have been singing already at Mamma’s doors with all the rest and I think you can begin to keep it as a very happy day.

I send you a green book with some very pretty pictures of Tom Thumb. I think you will like to see him driving his six little white mice and by and by you will be able to read his story.

I wonder when you will write a letter to me.

your affectionate godmother
Charlotte M. Yonge

1With envelope addressed to Miss Margaret Moberly. No address on letter.
2Dated on the assumption that it relates to the letter (28 November ?1859) from Constable & Co, and that the edition of 1859 is there referred to.
