We go for excursions in the summer and have theatricals at Christmas, and you and father will be invited to those.

It is rather nice, isn't it?
But of course I don't take any real interest in it.

I hate being here, but I am going to work hard to make the time pass.

I hope Anna is better.

Give Tony my love, and tell him he was a perfect dear to give me his precious piece of spar.
I shall always take it with me wherever I go.
