Monday
[Temple ?]@This note is found with the previous letter and an envelope addressed to “The Lawn (?) | Holy bourne | nr Alton.” On the envelope, in another hand, is written “Telling of the | death of | Mrs. Gaskell.”
I go to Manchester at 11. Please send over to Oxford Terrace colchicum will call there to night for a bag full of linen for me & Florence.
We have had a terrible time of it, & I dread having to tell them at Plymouth Grove.
Dear love to mother & all
