[letter]
Indefatigable. Thursday
Dear Mackenzie,
I was very sorry to hear from the [Secretary?] yesterday and also by the letter which you kindly sent me by [Martin?].. that your health appeared to be so much broken. I think you must go home when we arrive at Rio as you are not right to remain in such a state on board ship. I cannot well come on shore today but hope to be able to do so tomorrow when I will do all I can to come & see you. Martin says to be kindly remembered to you. Hoping this will find you better & I remain
dear Mackenzie
Very sincerely yours,
Alex Woodcock
