To Cordelia Elizabeth Yonge?
Elderfield
Novr 24 [1896 or earlier]

MS Mrs Philip Drazin1

My dear Cordelia
I shall be very glad to see you and Alethea on Wednesday – tomorrow afternoon if you can come out. I am sorry I can say no more, but Thursday is Mother’s Meeting day. Friday School, Saturday a Sunday School meeting at the Vicarage.

And Miss Walter is so ill that I dare not make arrangements for more than that short afternoon time

your affectionate cousin
C M Yonge

1Cordelia Elizabeth Yonge (1874-1958) and Alethea Yonge (1876-1959) were the younger daughters of CMY’s cousin the Rev. Duke Yonge of Puslinch. The names were common in the family, but these seem to be the most likely candidates.
