“Twenty-One Letters Written To A Near Relative”, is the title of this little book that I found inside a ruined workhouse. The letters inside are dated 1777.

Two hundred years later I found it under a pile of leaves in the corner of a huge dormitory.

Now thirty years on I still look at it and wonder whose hands have held it.
My son gave me this beautiful leather bound sketchbook for Christmas.

I shall fill it with drawings and little bits of writing, I wonder if anyone will hold it years from now. Like telephone wires across time.”
