19811646017 October 1981. We have quite a difficult task ahead of us In the months following their wedding Charles and Diana write to thank a contributor for his donation to the Duchy of Cornwall's official wedding gift of a mahogany library table. "Dear Mr Skam We would both like to thank you very much indeed for your most kind contribution to the wedding present which the Duchy has given us. We really are delighted with the mahogany library table which will look splendid in our home at Highgrove and is exactly the right period for the house. We were also most touched to receive the balance of the gift in the form of a cheque with which we shall probably buy some more furniture. As you can well imagine with two houses to equip from scratch we have quite a difficult task ahead of us! We have been completely overwhelmed by the kindness and generosity which so many people have shown to us but as you will know we have a very special affection for the Duchy and all those who live and work in it and we therefore particularly appreciate your gift. We look forward very much to visiting the Duchy together in the future. In Charles' hand: Yours most sincerely Charles and Diana's hand: Diana".

1651021990. Sent to Queen Elizabeth's chaplain Christmas card sent by Charles and Diana in 1990 to the dean of Windsor Michael Ashley Mann inscribed and signed in Charles's hand "Michael from Charles and" signed by Diana: "Diana". Mann 1924-2011 had an important role in the devotional life of the royal family in the latter 1970s and 1980s. He was commissioned into the 1st King's dragoon guards in 1943 serving in Egypt Syria Lebanon and Palestine in the last of which he narrowly avoided the King David Hotel bombing. He was afterwards falsely diagnosed with leukaemia and given six months to live spurring a conversion to a clerical life. Ordained in 1957 he served variously as curate vicar and canon across Britain and in Nigeria over the next two decades. "Mann was an outstanding preacher. He seldom spoke for more than seven minutes believing if you could not get across your points in that time you never would. His theme was invariably inspirational stressing the importance of Christian values: comradeship morality tradition and service" Times obituary 10 January 2012. In 1976 Mann was appointed the dean of Windsor serving until 1989 alongside domestic chaplain to the queen and registrar of the Order of the Garter. He had a close relationship with the royal family especially Prince Philip - "Mann's rapport with the duke of Edinburgh was genuine and mutually enlightening. Sir Fred Hoyle's Omni lecture on 'Evolution from space' in 1982 prompted a robust exchange of correspondence between the duke and Mann covering fundamentalism and creation science and religious conservatism and evolution and morality. The correspondence was published in 1984" ODNB.
