Includes copy of a letter from Houghton, 11 Nov. 1868.

12 Thistle Grove, West Brompton, S. W. - Met Houghton at Cannes when she was governess to Lord Brougham's nephews; he lent her the evidence to the Schools Committee and sang one of his songs; she now wants to give private readings from Shakespeare and seeks an interview.

Knowle Cottage, Surbiton, Surrey. - Encloses testimonials [no longer present] on behalf of her brother [Francis Osberne] Giffard, who seeks a larger living; would Houghton recommend him for the vacancy at the church of St John the Evangelist, Leeds; the testimonials show genuine feeling for her brother.
