Letter with copy. Written from Rothbury by Morpeth. Gives details of her continental work. Thinks the pamphlet [see letter dated 30 May from Stuart to Wilson] should pay its way; first criticisms laudatory. 'The pamphlet is just a collection of the best parts of all my speeches on the Continent'. Wants to know about their London meeting.
Josephine Butler to Henry Wilson
