MS Girton College Cambridge, Yonge IV 281

Dear Mr Innes,
Votes coming straight to me, and votes going first to Miss Coleridge made a certain amount of confusion – and four for Rowling Manor dated Jany 30th, came in just at the end and carried it up to 14 votes while L’Epine Noble has twelve — So I suppose it must be the prize one, though my own judgment would not have gone that way.2

Thank you about the stamps – We will divide

Yours truly
C M Yonge

1Black-edged paper.
2This relates to the prize for the best story in the Christmas 1891 number of the MP. Readers were asked to vote for their favourite.
