post. It distresses me dreadfully,
& I hope you will not give me up
as the most callous person in the
world, as I so appreciated all you were
good enough to say, & felt that
I could never thank you sufficiently
Now it only looks as if I was
unappreciative, but I hope you
know me well enough to know
this is not the case.

I feel so happy at the prospect
of our joint efforts, wh. I
know will show Minto in his true
light, as you are good enough to allow
me to supply the personal touches.
Again apologising for my stupidity about
the letter, Yours v. sincerely Mary Minto
