George Needham, 91 Byreden Terrace, Burnley Lane, to Rev. W. Boyden, 12 January 1876.

Dear Bro.r

         I regret that I have not been able to alter my Todmorden engagement for the 23rd. We shall be obliged therefore to defer our exchange until a future day.  I am very sorry but hope it may not subject you to any considerable inconvenience.

         With kind regards to M.rs Boyden—family & yourself—I am

                                             Your’s affectionately

                                                         Geo. Needham.

Rev. W. Boyden
