Christmas 1895 39 Frognal Hampstead N.W

My Dear Lady Maria,

I wish you a very Happy Christmas

and New Year, and maybe I hope I

may see you before long-

I am going for a few days

to the Solcer-Sampsons on Boxing day- I hope it isn't going to be cold-It feels rather like it today.

There is no almanack this year. So I send you the little pictures for xmas cards.

Please forgive my sending your

with Mr. Ponsonbys-but they

rub so I thought they would do best that way.

And you are going to have

your little girls with you. That

will rejoice you very much I

know.

The shops are quite long I

think- everywhere so bright even up here- I always like last the

time before Christmas-Oh -if only it wont freeze and snow-As soon as you have time I hope you will come one afternoon-I should have written to you before-Only I

wanted to come out-to show to advantage-and there nothing is done. I don't know how it is I never get time for anything, when oncce I get to work-then Ive had a very bad cold-I know you will believe in its badness even if Mr. Ponsonby does not.

No time to finish your

letter-

With my love

Your affectionate Kate Greenaway.
