Dear Mr Macmillan I like the appearance of the proof copy of the Ben Beriah very much and perhaps it would be best to work out the edition. The doubt in my mind would be whether it will be favorably [sic] received as ranging with my tales and novels.

My dear Mary I hope the sheep robbers did not reach the roots of the Corfu iris, and that other plants will recover. You must put in plenty of annuals to repair the damage.

Dear Mr Holgate I think I saw in some county book about Wiltshire that one of the Tukes of Tuke house was said to have been the original of Sir Roger de Coverley.

My dear Mary I hope the sheep were expelled sufficiently not to return again, and that these lovely spring days are healing the wounds they left.

Dear Madam I am very sorry I cannot help you to Ben Sylvester. I have not even one of my own except in a bound up volume, and the copyright is not mine. But if you enquired for it direct from Innes they might find a last copy, or be stirred to a reprint.

Dear Mr Holgate I think I saw in some county book about Wiltshire that one of the Tukes of Tuke house was said to have been the original of Sir Roger de Coverley. One of my cousins the Crawley Boeveys who believe themselves to belong to the Widow’s heir-at-law, learnt (in an unlucky hour for me) that I had heard this report, and insists on my finding it out for him. I am sure I came ... continue reading

Dear Mr Macmillan I like the appearance of the proof copy of the Ben Beriah very much and perhaps it would be best to work out the edition.

My dear Mary I hope the sheep robbers did not reach the roots of the Corfu iris, and that other plants will recover. You must put in plenty of annuals to repair the damage.

My dear Mary I hope the sheep were expelled sufficiently not to return again, and that these lovely spring days are healing the wounds they left.

Dear Mr Macmillan I like the appearance of the proof copy of the Ben Beriah very much and perhaps it would be best to work out the edition. The doubt in my mind would be whether it will be favorably [sic] received as ranging with my tales and novels.

My dear Mary I hope the sheep robbers did not reach the roots of the Corfu iris, and that other plants will recover. You must put in plenty of annuals to repair the damage.

My dear Mary I hope the sheep were expelled sufficiently not to return again, and that these lovely spring days are healing the wounds they left.

Dear Mr Holgate I think I saw in some county book about Wiltshire that one of the Tukes of Tuke house was said to have been the original of Sir Roger de Coverley.

My dear Mary I hope the sheep were expelled sufficiently not to return again, and that these lovely spring days are healing the wounds they left.

Dear Madam I am very sorry I cannot help you to Ben Sylvester. I have not even one of my own except in a bound up volume, and the copyright is not mine. But if you enquired for it direct from Innes they might find a last copy, or be stirred to a reprint.

yours truly C M Yonge

Dear Mr Holgate I think I saw in some county book about Wiltshire that one of the Tukes of Tuke house was said to have been the original of Sir Roger de Coverley. One of my cousins the Crawley Boeveys who believe themselves to belong to the Widow’s heir-at-law, learnt (in an unlucky hour for me) that I had heard this report, and insists on my finding it out for him. I am sure I came ... continue reading

Dear Mr Macmillan I like the appearance of the proof copy of the Ben Beriah very much and perhaps it would be best to work out the edition. The doubt in my mind would be whether it will be favorably [sic] received as ranging with my tales and novels. I suppose there is no possibility of adding a preface now, I had not put one because it would not have suited in St Nicholas, and I ... continue reading

My dear Mary I hope the sheep robbers did not reach the roots of the Corfu iris, and that other plants will recover. You must put in plenty of annuals to repair the damage. I suppose that having workmen about the gates and gaps became infirm, but the maids ought to have seen the enemy. I am afraid in the present state of things, I cannot leave home for though Gertrude is generally ... continue reading

Dear Madam I think yours is a useful paper, and I shall be glad to have it for Mothers in Council when there is room for it, but the April number is full

yours truly C M Yonge

My dear Mary I hope the sheep were expelled sufficiently not to return again, and that these lovely spring days are healing the wounds they left. I went to the Copse today and found the daffodils all but out, and there are many violets in the garden. The excitement of the week was that last Sunday morning Miss Finlaison fell down stairs with a large red glass lamp in her hand, which cut her ... continue reading

Dear Madam As far as I can remember the first four tales were Redclyffe Heartsease Hopes and Fears Dynevor Terrace
