My Darling
There has been nothing from you today — I am half afraid my early letters and telegrams may not have reached you as your address was not quite rightly telegraphed — but I hope they did.
I keep on thinking about you and longing for you. It is glorious that you have got work4 and that it goes so well and I do hope it is the beginning of an issue from your troubles —
I am very tired — so tired that I take no interest in anything I am doing. It seems about thirty years since I said goodbye to you. When I am tired I become a prey to superstition and terror.
Goodnight my dear love — I am too tired to write more except that my love surrounds you always —
