To a Lady asking her to become a Patroness

I spent another good day doing very little. I've been reading some Agatha Raisin novels, which are surprisingly good. Unfortunately, if I want any more, I can't get them from my library. They are shut down completely. Last week they were doing curbside pick-up, but no longer. I get it, but still.

Yesterday was the largest full moon of the year, and to celebrate, I refreshed my home protection spell. Hopefully it will keep the corona virus at bay. I also enchanted all of my knitting needles. I did magic wand dedication ceremony, then placed a crystal on each one. I made sure I did it before dark so they could take in the power of that fantastic full moon.

I finished another sweater this morning. It's a chunky cabled thing that's a bit of a mess, to be honest, but I made it up as I went along and didn't exactly take good notes. I know I couldn't do it again, not that I'd want to, anyway.


So, here I am sharing another letter. I don't have much to say about it this time. I'll let it speak for itself.

To a Lady asking her to become a Patroness

Oldfield Grange,            
November 14th.      
      The Countess of Dulwich,
             Mr. Gray vegs to ask the Countess of Dulwich if she will kindly allow her name to be placed on the list of patronesses of the Oldfield Hospital Ball to be held at the Town Hall on the 10th of next month. The Ball committee are very desirous of securing an influential list of patronesses, as this point materially influences the sale of tickets. Mr. Gray therefore trusts that he may count upon the support of the Countess of Dulwich on this occasion.
