My dear Mrs Swinton Thank you once more for the Waterloo letters which I have read with the greatest pleasure. They bring it close to us, just as did Lord Seaton and my father talking it over. I rather wonder to see the Prince of Orange such a favourite but probably he was very different to young girls from what he was to Lord Seaton who was his ‘bear leader’ for some time

Yours sincerely C M Yonge
