Ruskin (John, art critic and social critic, 1819-1900) Autograph Letter signed to his Mother, 2½p., 8vo, Winnington, [Cheshire], 22nd May [c. ?1860s], describing a dance at Winnington School in which he had been involved with his young friend Lily Armstrong, "They opened [at Winnington School] a new playroom yesterday which Miss Bell has just roofed in for them and the little ones had determined to wait for me to have the first game with them in it. So we began with a grand game of cat and mouse - and then at dropping the handkerchief - and then we had Irish quadrilles - which end with a wonderful dance in a labyrinth of rings, and as I was to have Lily for partner I put my coat on a wrong side before to look like an Irishman; Lily highly approved of this arrangement... Lily at last pulled it off me altogether and put it on herself over her frock and tied her hair up in a hard knot and then we had an Irish quadrille to purpose - till I had no more breath left", folds, slightly browned.⁂ Ruskin first met Lily Armstrong when she was a 12-year-old schoolgirl at Winnington, the girls' boarding-school in Cheshire run by the financially inept Margaret Alexis Bell with considerable interest and assistance from Ruskin himself. He was a regular visitor to the school, where he not only proceeded with his own writing but joined in games and dancing with the girls. His friendship with Lily lasted long beyond her schooldays and after her marriage, and was evidently deeply affectionate on both sides.
