My Darling Love

No letter this morning — I expect there will be one at the P.O. this afternoon — The threatened invasion of Littlewood’s people4 is postponed till too late to matter to us, I am happy to say — so let us stick to Ashford5 on the 12th, and here about a week later — Beloved I am so happy in the thought of your love — Bless you my dear one — Thank you for the little Lynton6 picture, very nicely framed — I love having it. A thousand kisses and all my heart, my Darling —
