GE to Fanny [Mrs. Henry] Houghton, Coventry, [21 September 1851]
MS: Miss Dorothy Evans. Hitherto unpublished.
My dear Fanny
The muslin is beautiful in quality and pattern and will do admirably. Thank you for taking the trouble. I will leave the money with Mr. Bray, so that you will have no further anxiety on the subject.
Glorious weather at last. Mr. and Mrs. Chapman came yesterday to stay till the middle of the day tomorrow. 1005 This has robbed me of two otherwise available days for Griff and Meriden, and I fear I shall hardly get to them before I leave.
Ever your affectionate
Marian.
Rosehill | Sunday.

Signature

Marian.
