3pp., 16mo. Bifolium on grey paper. In fair condition, lightly aged, with slight glue staining at margin of second leaf. The letter begins: 'Dear Miss Anderson, | I did not write though I conclude you have long been home but you are always busy - & so am I.' She will not 'have finished her book' for another two weeks, when she will be 'free to think of other things'. Then she would 'much like to have a serious talk' with her 'about the play'. She asks to be informed when Anderson will be in London, failing which she 'would not mind to run down to Tunbridge Wells if it could be done in a few hours & your house is not very far from the Station'. She ends with 'every good New Year's wish for your health, happiness, & worldly prosperity'.
