Further comments

The Consul General of Denmark writes that he knows her and that he had business relations with her 1891, and has seen her on and off, and that he understands she has nothing, but earns a little through her needlework.

There is a memo attached saying she needs to get a signature from a Justice of the Peace and to sign her statutory declaration in from of him, which she presumably does, since she gets the naturalisation.
