Fine early Autograph Letter Signed to an unnamed correspondent

There is a possibility that it may not reach the gallery till Tuesday for Lady Wantage who owns the picture is still away & correspondence has been difficult - however she has telegraphed to her country house for it to be sent up ... if it is unfit for size or other reasons - such as unfitting for the character of the exhibition please have no scruple in telling me. I work so little in water colour now that unexhibited examples of mine are difficult to get ...", 3 sides 8vo., The Grange, West Kensington headed paper, no date but circa
