Title	Letter from Queen Victoria to Lord John Russell
Date	22 September 1847
Writer	Victoria, Queen
Addressee	Russell, John, Lord
Description	Queen Victoria wishes to have the form of prayer used for the Thanksgiving to be revised, because that which was used on the Fast Day was now obsolete and unchristian. She does not wish there to be any mention of the harvest being a consequence of prayers on the Fast Day, as she considers that would be an encouragement to superstition.
