3We are back again in Hanover. W Morris has just come thank you so much.
4 I think I shall like to read it. My brain is so tired I never seem to
5think, or be able to read in the old way – but Morris I shall like.
6I send you a letter from Isie Smuts. Please when read send it on to my
7sister-in-law. Tell me if you get it. Things are so sad up here. I
8hope you are both well.
