1Dear Mrs Hadden

3No, I have no “At Home” day. My health is so uncertain that all my
4friends might often come & I not be able to see them. But couldn’t you
5& Mr Hadden come down sometimes in the evening? We are in every
6evening, as I am seldom able to go out at night, & I think one enjoys
7a chat in the evening better than any time. I am returning the books,
8with many thanks, & also many thanks for the lovely flowers.

10Yours very sincerely

13Please tell Mr Hadden I have some more of Carpenters books he can have
14when he has done with those, if he would like to see them. Our books
15have just arrived.
