My dear Miss Erskine,
Your letter only came to me this morning as you see I am on my travels – so though it is before Tuesday, I think I had better answer to May. I shall be at 45 Westbourne Terrace for a few days after Wednesday, and shall I hope have a good sight of Mary Coleridge whom I have quite missed in Devonshire1

I have told Ivanova (Miss Batty) of the Institution, and if she will undertake to write an account of it, I will ask you to be kind enough to send the report either to her or to me – but I will let you know what she says –2

Yours sincerely
C M Yonge
