| Creator | Marshall; Reginald Dyke (1832 - 1913); husband of Louisa Margaret Herschel |
| Date | 22 December 1861 |
| Description | Autograph letter signed by sender. Has not been able to obtain a return of the rainfall for Bassenthwaite or Seathwaite, but sends one for Keswick, which may be of interest. Was at Keswick on 25 Nov. and has never seen heavier rain than fell on that day. Children are well. Sad loss to the Queen and nation. |
