MS Princeton University, Parrish Collection
Dear Miss Phillpotts,
It seems hardly fair to have kept your paper several days, when the Monthly Packet is obliged to ‘draw a line’ against the numerous Missionary Papers it might have, but I wanted to show it to Miss Crawley – who you know, as well as Miss Morshead was one of the first Sisters.
She begged to keep a copy of it, and I think it would be most advisable to publish it. I was thinking of sending it to the Literary Churchman
Yours truly
C M Yonge
Looking again at your note I see you design it for the Net as the next choice, so here it is.
CMY writes that ” Miss Crawley… WAS one of the first Sisters” so perhaps this letter should be dated after Edith Crawley’s return from South Africa
