Sarah Rowntree, Manchester, to her son Joseph Rowntree

Disappointed she has not heard from him of Johnnie, or H, wishes very much to know how they all get on; hopes they all endeavour to do good and give no trouble; write and tell her how they spend their evenings and if Johnnie has begun to go to school before breakfast and if he has lessons to learn in an evening; yesterday she went to the Museum, 'which as usual we found a very interesting place', Harry was pleased with it; today they have been to see a very beautiful exhibition of British manufacturers of many different kinds, she has got a book explaining what they have seen; give her love to the maids and to S. Candler and J. Robinson, to dear Johnnie, Hannah and Sally, and to himself.
