miles off.

The children are very well & funny. Billy Fish [ST - William] is
getting an engaging way. He is quite as advanced as a
child of 5 & so wee. Tell Walter to read a book
called "Eminent Victorians" by Lytton Strachey. It is

I hope to stay down here till Wednesday morning.

I do hope you are going well, my kind wee
body.

Much love to all
