MS Mrs Caroline Fairclough/31
My dear Mrs Butler
At last I can send you the small amount for your Snow Queen She was a long time waiting before I could get her in, but she looks very pretty in the number.
I had the pleasure of seeing Grace Guinness last month, and hearing of my dear Lizzie, who is really a wonder, I wish Emma was as well!1
yours sincerely
C M Yonge
Your husband will be sorry to hear that the beautiful Common is being eaten up with houses, and there is talk of a Union Workhouse in the prettiest part.
