Notes

Thankyou for your very nice letter/ with all those lovely descriptive/ passages of beautiful places/ & times- Yes it seems as though Winter/ is gone and Summer will be/ upon us before long - Oh I must/ set down to see you soon,/ but I'll have to wait till after/ I've sorted things out for...
