Beloved

Thank you for your letter — Yes, last days are difficult — All goes well as regards Dora Black4 and I am very happy so far as she is concerned — But the long parting from you is very difficult.

I am busy with shopping etc. and have only odd moments. I love you, my dear dear Love —  Do not be unhappy more than you can help — Bless you Beloved.
