BRADLEY EDITH JULY 27 1898 Private The Countess of Warwick's Agricultural Scheme for Women. Organizing Secretary-MISS EDITH BRADLEY 60. ST. GEORGE'S ROAD. WARWICK SQUARE, S.W. Park House July 27: 1898 Dear Mrs. Sewall Please accept my sincere thanks for your most kind letter, & also for the Report of your work. I assure it is I who am indebted to you for the pleasure of making your acquaintance. I always feel it a great privilege to welcome & in any sense show hospitality to American ladies like yourself who come over & infuse new life & vitality to our older civilization. And to be quite personal I am sure the charm of your life & far reaching aims & sympathies must be a great help & vest to those who (may I say) like myself, have not yet "attained," but only reached the fringe, as it were, of the higher spiritual plane, Glimpses

The daily realities, disappointments shattered ideals, broken friendships all have too great a hold, & [shut] blind one's vision to the "World Beautiful." Lady Warwick is as you say an enchanting woman, to my mind she is one of the few really great women we have. Her position is quite unique, & I hope that the verdict of history will endorse my theory. Any plans which you may propound & in which Lady Warwick is asked to take a leading part, I will use every endeavor to facilitae & assist, because I look upon it as the highest possible privilege to devote my life absolutely to my kindred Friend & noble Patronners. You asked about Agricultural Scheme. The enclosed was the first bare project. Since then many modifications have been taken place, & at last after weeks of waiting it seems likely that the Hostel for women students may be opened in the Autumn. I am coming to London tomorrow until Tuesday. Shall I have a chance of seeing you on Sat: or Monday. It would be very nice. I would call if agreeable. With kindest regards dear Mrs. Sewall Yours sincerely Edith Bradley.
