LOUISE CAROLINE (1848-1939, Princess, Daughter of Queen Victoria, Duchess of Argyll, Sculptress)

Fine Autograph Letter Signed to Mrs Tylor, thanking her for sending her "such a beautiful apron, and that you should have done that it all your self & the lace by Juliet. I think the lace beautifully done, and I know from experience that it is very tedious work and requires great care, please tell your dear Juliet I am so much pleased with it You are all of you ever so kind to me that I feel quite touched by it. I was so grieved that Helena has been ill for so long, but I trust that now she is quite herself again. You are very kind asking after my dear brother Leopold, he has been quite well for some little time until two or three days ago he sprained his knee, so he is confined to his room for a few days. We have excellent accounts of Arthur who is enjoying himself very much. I miss him terribly and you can fancy I was so very sorry to hear of your husband having been ill ..." , 5 sides 8vo., on beautifully monogrammed notepaper with her initials in blue and gold under a gilt crown, Osborne, 17th January
