the second draft. Yes I have it, I have tried to mention all your letters & postals, as I said before, (but I suppose I fail sometimes.) and I make it a point to do so in such a way that you will know which I refer to, for to say simply "I received you letter" is not very deffinite at this distance.

My last two letters have been in pencil because I omitted to take pen and ink with me & there was nothing useable on the boat or at home.
