3 letters and 1 inscribed visiting card (for Lady Ritchie and Miss Hester Ritchie). Address: 109 St George's Square, London SW. 2 of the letters are addressed to H Remsen Whitehouse and the other to Colonel Rivett Carnac. No year is given on the letters, but dates of 1912-1913 seem plausible: Remsen Whitehouse met Lady Ritchie at Colonel Rivett Carnac's house, Vevey, Switzerland, in April 1912, and 2 of the letters are written on mourning paper, perhaps due to the death of Sir Richmond T W Ritchie in October 1912.
All items are autograph, with signatures.
