I’ll have to leave this on the 9th to go to Webbers farm to see
2about a young lad the son of a friend of mine who is staying there:
3then I go to Mrs Cawoods for a few days & then Home to Kimberley. Do
4try to come before we leave. Mrs Cawood is coming today to spend some
5days with us here. I’m so glad your visit was such a delight to my
6little mother.
