High Commissioner's Office,

April: 25 :: 1903

My dearest Mother

May thanks to you and Anna for your last
letter. I hope Anna has had a pleasant holiday
and is much refreshed. Unhappy Bird! [His brother, Walter] What is
wrong with that stalwart fowl? I doubt indoor
life is not the one for him.

Poor old body! You are cumbered about
with many cares. I am glad you did so well
at the Sale of Work. It is time you and
"Auld John Ox" parted company, or the one
will be the death of the other. I will be glad to
give you a contribution, if you will tell me what
you want.

I hope you have taken Altarstone for September.
