H J Longsdon at Collegiate School, Sheffield to Uncle William Longsdon at Longsdon, Bakewell - received letter this morning; great pleasure in getting pair of skates for Charles with half sovereign William sent him. Mr Singleton is going to order some skates for the boys so he will get them somewhat cheaper. Writer will get a pair from him which will be sent by Mr Orr.
They have petitioned Queen for an increase of holidays on account of happy event of the prince royal's birth. Not yet received an answer other than very polite letter from Prince Albert's secretary. Looking forward to breaking up. |
