To an Unknown Woman
Elderfield Otterbourne Winchester
Decr 4th [1893?]

MS Bodleian Library, Oxford: MSS. Autogr. b.9 pp 460-11

Dear Madam
I am much obliged for your offer but I am afraid you have been forestalled as we have had two papers upon Palermo and Taormina by Miss Florence Freeman, written and we could hardly go over the same ground2

Yours truly
C M Yonge

1A tiny piece from an envelope is pasted in with the address ‘The Revd/ J.J. Stone/ Windsor’. The recipient was perhaps a member of his household, or the letter may not belong to it.
2Florence Freeman, 'Taormina and its Neighbourhood' MP 3s 2 (December 1891), 617-29; and 'Palermo and its Neighbourhood' MP 3s 6 (September 1893), 296-310.
