6 Perhaps I shall have to be in Worcester on the 19th to see my sister
7about something. Will you be coming up with Mr Sauer to the Show? Then
8I could see you there. I like you so much to call me Olive. I'm
9working so hard that I can't bear to hold a pen a minute more than is
10necessary. Love to the little ones. If you come the first week in
11March do bring them with you
