Both items good, on lightly-aged paper. Rosa Hood's sister Adelaide Fanny was the wife of Herbert F. Gye, and letter and reply are written informally. Hood's letter: 3pp., 12mo. She received Mrs Gye's letter that morning, 'and the Queen has read it' and is 'quite pleased with your reply'. 'The Queen desired me to assure you that she had never for a moment supposed that you were responsible for the article in the newspaper - only the Queen thought it was better to have the matter mentioned to you - especially as it might be copied into other papers.' The Queen also thinks that Mrs Gye should 'have some contradiction put in the Paper'. Mrs Gye's draft reply: 2pp., 12mo. She writes that she cannot express her relief at the contents of Hood's letter. 'Since your first letter, the thought that Her Majesty would be displeased about it has troubled me very much - therefore you can imagine how delighted I am to find the Queen did not imagine I was responsible.' She has 'written to Church Journal to deny the authorship of the article and ask them to publish it'.
