Part of Papers of Richard Monckton Milnes, Lord Houghton

13 Norfolk Street, Ardwick Green. - Miss Gaskell sent Milnes' note; went to Polygon on north side of Manchester, near which 'the younger Mr Fairbairn' lives and missed meeting Milnes at the Ardwick Green one [home of Fairbairn's father]; heard him in the Free Trade Hall on Thursday night. Thanks him for note on Yarns by a Manchester Spinner; many are badly spun.
