Folded sheet of writing paper with letter on four sides written by Henry Munn from Emmanuel College 28 January 1847. Henry matriculated in 1847 and graduated with a BA in 1850 and an MA in 1853. His letter reflects on College life: ‘I received your kind letter this morning & the wine yesterday. I have not opened it yet as I am having the lock of my wine closet repaired. We have a very good dinner at the … table - joints, pies, puddings etc and in my opinion the meat is as warm as the pensioners! It is at our table in a hot water dish and the fellows’ dinner is always brought into hall after the others..’ Small paper loss and minor defect in margin.
