Dear Frederic Chapman

A favor! – you shewed me once a great heap of Alice Learmonts – of use to nobody –

Will you give me a few of them to send to a Bazaar at Greenock – “Watt Monument Bazaar – ” where will flourish & sell, Lady Octavia Shaw Stewart Shaw-Stewart & the other Sutherland folk – &c &c – & where this “few” might possibly sell a few more – or many. –

Will you? –

Yours sincerely Dinah Mulock – 12 Melvil Melville Terrace Torriano Avenue Camden Road Villas –
