BR TO CONSTANCE MALLESON, [29 SEPT. 1917]
BRACERS 19224. ALS. McMaster
Edited by S. Turcon. Reviewed by K. Blackwell


<London?>

Don’t be miserable my loved one1, 2 — I have been thinking all day and have got things in order. I see a possible future now clearly — There is nothing for you to be miserable about. Please don’t be — I do want you not to be — I am not, now —

I felt you had never been so fine as last night — you had a new quality which I love. I am glad of this new thing3 that has come into your life — you needed it for completeness.

I did feel your love and do.
