Loving greetings. He had hoped to see Toole that week but the sudden illness of poor old Loveday kept him in town. They sail the next day and he hopes to see Toole at the end of March. Greetings to Arlton and thank him for the "Pieraer(?)". Irving may astonish the Americans with that. He will write when they arrive and sends blessings. |
